It took me months to figure out what "IMHO" or "IMO" stood for, seen it used in these forums often but couldnt figure it out and english is my only language (unless typo counts)
IMHO = In my honest opinion
IMO = In my opinion
<?bhb if(broken){ echo("It wasn't me
"); } ?>

I've also seen IMHO defined as "im my humble opinion". Basically the same.

Actually, there missing some common ones too...
TMI = too much info
GTG = got to go
TTYL is more common than the TTUL they have (talk to you later)
