Computer slang for "Laughing Quietly To Myself."

Few people honestly laugh out loud when they use LOL. I created this term years ago to combat the overuse of LOL (laughing out loud) in instant message conversations.
Ahab: Catch you later! LOL!!
Moby: That's getting old. But it's still funny. lqtm

"laughing quietly to myself"
because not everyone "laughs out loud" when they see that stuff online... the probably laugh silently to themselves so their neighbors don't think they're crazy.

Sort of like LOL, only more secretly, more I've-got-an-evil-plan-in-mind-here sort of thing.
