"HTML" Posting Tags, was Top-posting shenanigans

I've never seen a list of "html" tags used in messages online, and the
only one that comes to mind is "<rant> ... </rant>." Are there others in
common usage? It might be interesting to have a list much in the same
vein as the lists of emotocons and commonly used abbreviations. They can
certainly help to add context and character to a message (like Jay's
<ListOwnerMode Off> ... "html" tag.)
