    AFAIK- As far as I know
    AFK- Away from keyboard
    WTF- What the F

    A few obscure ones (mostly gaming)-

    n00b- From "newbie", meaning a newcomer not yet familiar with the rules

    l33t or 1337- From "elite". This has become a term used to describe the informal communication of Internet gaming. L33t speak is easily identified by the substitution of number and other characters for regular letters; e.g., hackers becomes h4XX0rz.

    PWN - Usage of the term "own", as in "I PWNed you!"
