It's the abbreviation for "quod erat demonstrandum," Latin for "thus it 
is proven" and the traditional last line of a geometry proof or logic 
syllogism. A scholarly version of "neener-neener" if you will.

As for the others, I was making fun of the semi-literate whose posts 
consist entirely of currently-faddish acronyms. Presumably, they are 
evidence of belonging to an "in" group. Since you and I will never be 
part of such a group, we're not supposed to understand.  :-)

Wikipedia is a good reference for acronyms and other arcana of transient 
modern culture.
