There is a fairly long one that starts with an "a" that I see at the beginning of some posts. I don't know what it is and when I see it I think, wtf. <_<

more for the forums than for bbo (bridge base online), but...

wtp = what's the problem
obv = obviously
ldo = like, duh, obviously
afaik/afaics/afaict = as far as I (know/can see/can tell)
ainec = and it's not even close
imo/imho = in my (humble) opinion
fwiw = for what it's worth
