What are all these abbreviations/acronyms anyway?

I read a lot of abbreviations and acronyms used by a lot of forum members like RTFM, LOL etc. but I am still unsure of their meanings.

Also can somebody explain web-specific terms here?

Thanks.

Please feel free to post as many as you know/can. This might serve as a guide to other new-comers who use this web.

Go to:
www.urbandictionary.com
There you will find definitions. Be advised some of these acronyms contain profanity
