Well, some include:

HAND: Have a nice day.
TTFN: Ta ta for now.
ROFL: Rolling on floor laughing.
LMAO: Laugh my ass off.

Then of course if something is REALLY funny, you can ROFLMAO

Slink and I have our own acronym-based language.... the main ones are as follows:

TT - "true.... true...."
JTC - "Jesus-tapdancing Christ" (we're big south park buffs)

and one that we haven't used in a while....

FATSSB - "F**k all that s**t, Silent Bob"

ummm... if Slink catches this post, maybe he can help me remember some other ones
