very other word was "lol". And nothing bothers me more than the word "lol".


I mean, 'lol' without capitalization is bad enough, but when 'LOL!!!1!!ONE' is used (with the ones intentionally) I want to rip out my eyes, fill them with some kind of tasty liquid, stick a wooden spoon in them, freeze them, and then enjoy the sweety popsicle-ness that would become of my eyes, while also gagging and having corrective eye surgery, but let's not get into that.

The first person to ever use the term 'lol' should explode. No, implode--why should we be showered in chunks of said person if they exploded. Yes, he/she definately needs to implode.

The only time I would ever use the term 'lol' was when I read in the newspaper; "First Person to Pioneer Beloved Chatspeak Implodes Due to Reasons Unkown."

Then I would 'lol'. A lot.

What bothers me most? When people say "lol" in real life. When you CAN laugh out loud, why waste the time to giggle and say, "lol?"

Exactly! If I didn't point that out in the first post, I probably just forgot, but I intended to. Yes, like, I know someone who said 'stfu' to my friend one time. I wanted to rape a cow at that particular moment. Don't know why I wanted to take my anger on an innocent cow... in an intercourseful manner, but let's not get into that...

Personally, I don't mind 'lol' myself, I use it online frequently. In fact, I have to admit at one stage I used 'lol' insufferably, it used to annoy the hell out of my online friend Ben. He told me he'd give me a gift if I went without saying 'lol' for a month. XP Needless to say, I failed, much to his combined dismay and amusement xd . But 'lol' is okies, it's not the worst txt talk you can find in this Literacy forsaken world. XP

However, I see saying it in real life as a waste of time. I mean you can laugh out loud in life. You don't need to say 'lol'. Although, I think I've said it once or twice out of habit. Well, never again! Or else, you can black my eyes, concuss me, and disembowel me.^^ (Actually, I'd rather stay alive if you don't mind). xd

I only ever say it out loud when I'm impersonating someone who probably does frequently use the term. It makes me lolvomit. Not normal vomit, lolvomit. >_<

I've used "lol" a few times. I only use it when necissary, which with my personality, isn't very often.

I say lol all the time on the internet but not in real life I don't laugh out loud very often so I don't have to worry about that!

I have an order of what I say (online)...
1. Haha
2. Hahaha
3. AHAHAHAHA
4. lol/LOL
5. rofl/ROFL
For how funny something is...
Weird, aren't I...
So I think 'lol' is a fine...thing to use.
