Talking French slang

I've been told that we should build up a collection of slangy type phrases to use in the dreaded email format and such, does anyone want to share?

Some that I can think of on the fly are:

vachement = really (more informal than vraiment)

les nanas = chicks (as opposed to l'ananas, a pineapple)

les gars = guys

C'et a dire = that is to say (good for impressing examiners in the oral, I think)

Bisoux = kisses (signing off an informal letter)
