An abbreviation for 'laugh out loud'. Mainly used when tweeting, texting, or any means of social media. When someone tells a joke or writes something funny on social media or texting, this can be a substitution for 'haha'.

When a "lol" appears towards the start and another at the end of a text to portray a lighthearted tone, yet in reality the sender is likely nervous or passive aggressive.
Examples of Bookend LOLs
"lol I can't wait to see you! lol"
"lol we should go out and grab coffee, then maybe swing by my place later lol"

Originally meant "laughing out loud," but according to linguist and 'TED Talks' guest, John McWhorter, "lol" eventually came to be used as a pragmatic particle or verbal space filler, if you will, before finally evolving to it's current state of popular use as a marker of empathy, accommodation, or understanding, quite often of something that isn't a great thing.
Nowadays when people say "lol," you can obviously see that it no longer means "laughing out loud," and that it more likely means something like "Well shit! The struggle is real but the thing you're talking about probably won't turn out 'too' bad compared to, oh I dunno, literal Satan, for example."
