About the term "lol"...

[Freak83]

It means laugh out loud... but I have an odd feeling that we don't actually do this when we type it in, the term is being overused and it's not really fitting what it means. Same with other things such as rofl. Therefore, I propose we actually do these things when we type it in. No, it doesn't have to be serious, it can be a fake cheesy laugh, you can slowly get out of your chair, take time to lie down on the floor, and then roll around laughing if you want to, but we should officially start doing these things from now on.

I've had my rant, good night.

so true, lol

see, i didnt really laugh, so fake

[tristia]

generally when i type "lol" i am laughing out loud... but then again, im a rather jolly person and i laugh at everything... but i do know a lot of people who over use it.

[Kenzya]

If I find it funny I'll type hahahahaha or something like that.. otherwise I'll just be like.. lolz, roffle chips.. just to make 'em feel good..

[Master_of_PARANOiA]

When I type lol I'm actually laughing. Maybe not out loud, but I still laugh.
Lol.

EDIT:

credics (SP?!!!)

Critics.

I rarely laugh out loud when I use lol. It'll usually be a chuckle, heh, ha, or some kind of aknowledgement of the joke.

If I actually laugh out loud, I'll use rofl or lmao. It's appropriate, though. It's not like I use rofl all the time.

[RobbyZero]

I never use "lol" or "rofl" or "lmao" anytime when im not laughing histerically at something,but usually when I do it I usually mean it.

Blame the movie credics (SP?!!!) anyways they started that crap.

hahahaha is thought of to me as like a sarcastic thing.

[VxDx]

I never use lol unless it's to make fun of someone because it is retarded. There are other ways to show something's funny. If I actually do chuckle at something (I never actually laugh out loud) I may put in a haha, but not an lol becuase I don't want to associate myself with the hundred million AIM, chat, and forum users that act and type like retards.
