Meaning, Laugh Out Loud, but has achieved
fine subtle nuances of it's own unique personality. For example:
"lol": "I am mildly amused..."
"lol!!": (the original laugh out loud excitement) "HAHA!!"
"LOL": (can be sarcastic) "Ha, yeah, no." /:|
"LOL!!": (this is very similar to other gleeful chatspeak such as lmao (laugh my ass off), and
rofl (rolling on floor laughing) "WAAAAAHAHAHAHA HOLY SHIT THAT IS
FUNNY LOL!!!"
**side note: I don'
t use the phrase rofl as a response to something
funny; rather, saying it simply makes me laugh. Try it. Say "rofl rofl rofl!!" phonetically. lol!!
