Get the lolmug. lol doesn't really mean "laugh out loud". It never has.
It can mean "I acknowledge what you said, and it may or may not be mildly amusing. Either way, I genereally approve, in a non-comital way."
It also usually communicates the amused, nearly silent expulsion of air from the nose, which is not quite a small snort, which is reserved for reading something funny. Originally used for amusing and witty books, but now translated to text communication as well. One does not actually have to politely laugh, one mimics it with a simple lol, and doesn't bother to mime the false pretense in person.

Get the lolmug. Stands for
Laugh(ing)
Out
Loud
But nowadays people use it as a word so they can just say something instead of ignoring the person.

Get the lolmug. A three letter acronym with a shady past. I knew a couple who thought it meant 'lots of love'... and they wrote LOL in a funeral letter!
Funeral Letter: 'Sorry your dad died. LOL, Jake and Sally.
Guy 1: Dude, he wrote LOL in a funeral letter!
Guy 2: Must have thought it mean lots of love.
