Abbreviations

As a relative newcomer to "forum speak",(& a "foreigner") could I possibly ask someone who knows, what the different abbreviations mean?
The one that I especially can't get my brain around is LOL.
Thanks.

ATGATT / all the gear all the time
WTF / what the f***
IIRC / if I remember correctly
LOL / laughing out loud
WOT / wide open throttle

Now I need a nap, all this remembering is tiring.
