''LOL'' Is not used correctly cuz It Means '' Laugh Out Loud'', and we use it at something that we almost does not find that funny... Have something to say about that?

ROFL is not used correctly. It means "Rolling On Floor Laughing" yet when it is used we do not roll on the floor laughing.

LMAO is not used correctly. It means "Laughing My Ass Off" yet it is impossible for one's ass to pop off while laughing.

In short, shut the fuck up.

I used to think that when I was younger. It puzzled me so I found out the truth pretty quickly.
In any case "lol" is often used when people can't think of anything better to say. Not much to that.

On that logic "are'nt" is wrong and you should not have said it. Spelling, grammar, purpose, meaning. None of these have to be used on the internet, I could type in some random bollocks that may sound to someone like I am trying to say a word and it would be allowed as no one gives a shit. I say lol, haha, hehe, loads of pointless shit al lthe time for no reason whats the problem? If you hope to become a part of the internet community you have to not care about such insignificant things.

I never use 'lol' unless I find it REALLY funny. In that case, I put it in all caps (LOL) and explain why it is funny.

Since only like 20 of my BBS posts have LOL in them, when I use LOL, I am REALLY laughing.

Anyway, people used it so often that it's a habit now. They type what they want to say and throw 'lol' at it because of habit.

I never liked 'lol' anyway. I prefer to spell it out or use WORDS to express feelings. lol has no meaning anyway.

Most of us are stupid so we confuse 'lol' with 'lul'

I don't know what 'lul' stands for but I know it means laughing at someone else's expense.

Its evolution of language, "lol" in some cases may actually mean laughing out loud, but it can be interpreted as a response to something amusing. I feel it is a bit overused sometimes though.

Next time someone tells you to "Leave room for the holy spirit.." ask them if they are implying you have a threesome.

lol means fun. So when you say lol, it should require you to find some fun in something that is said.
