I will edit the list of acronyms I posted a couple of weeks ago. I plan
to add some basic NG stuff like:

FWIW
YMMV
NG
DAMHITK
LOTFLMAO
LOL
BTW

What others should I add? Both DM and NG related. I'll make one post,
split into two lists.

while those are comprehensive lists, I'm trying to provide newbies with
BASIC acronyms that are used by your typical NG denizen. Now need to
overwhelm them with a list so long they will quit reading before
reaching 15% of the list.

Do you mean "ROTFLMAO" ?

How about PITA = proctalgia
