In response to a long post that you can't be bothered to read:

TLDR:Too Long Didn't Read.

Or,depending upon how insulting you wish to be:

TLDR/FWI:Too Long Didnt Read Fwapped Instead.

Probably best not to post the last one on here,this is not that kinda forum...

Well I'd like to know also and I'm American! Everytime I've used atm on the internet it has meant "at the moment". Unless you are talking about dirty dirty stuff. If someone was meaning to say that, they would probably just say it.

well.. for the naughty one, i would say a2m not atm

not that im into that kind of thing.

some that I didnt see, but are in common usage:

IIRC = if i recall correctly

IANAL = i am not a lawyer (usually followed by 'legal advice')

variations on IANA... like IANAD (i am not a doctor) etc.
