Expressing emotions and feelings
HIFW – How I feel when
HIFW has become one of the most common text abbreviations in funny, sarcastic memes and gifs on Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook. Another example with the full words is also frequently used in blogs and FB posts.
TFW – That feeling when. TFW internet slang often goes in a caption to an image.

You can use it referring to a person who you care for the most. E.g. Me and my BAE have just watched another episode of Game of Thrones!
SSDD – Same stuff, different day
QQ – Crying
For me, the origin of QQ abbreviation is really surprising. According to Urban Dictionary, at first, QQ meant to quit the game Warcraft II by pressing the hotkey Alt+QQ. Hence, when a player started whining, others offered him to QQ. Soon, it was associated with crying eyes and used in texting and tweeting as well.

This and the following examples belong to internet slang abbreviations describing something of the best or low (FTL) quality. If you say something is FTW, then it can be splendid, amazing, perfect, etc.

YNK – You never know
SMH – Shaking my head
Describing the reaction to something stupid, aggressive, hostile, unfair, etc.
SRSLY – Seriously
YGTR – You got that right
GMTA – Great minds think alike
It is sometimes confused with GMAT (Graduate Management Admission Test); however, those who have gone through that painful preparation to exam could always tell the difference. The abbreviation, which refers to the common way of thinking, has become mainstream and even placed as a print on cups, pillows, shirts, etc.

Disclaimers

IANAL – I am not a lawyer
Next time you share any law-related advice in a public chat, put IANAL or its analogue TINLA (This is not legal advice) so that you are not accused of unlicensed consultation. In the U.S. and other countries, even a small recommendation on how to deal with your assets or running a divorce case can be regarded as unauthorized law practice.

TL;DR – Too long; didn’t read
You can reply with this abbreviation not only to emphasise how long the post is but also to explain that you’ve been too lazy to read and just ignored it. Which is why TL;DR also means Too lazy; didn’t read. Later, it gave birth to ToS; DR (Terms of service; didn’t read). As you may know, many people skip studying this part of a website because of the complex law terms and long sentences.
