An offshoot of the popular "lol" acronym, ILOLAW stands for "inappropriately laughing out loud at work." It is used to describe situations where something done, said, or witnessed causes you to laugh out loud so intensely while at your place of occupation that others take notice. Reactions from coworkers or bosses to an ILOLAW can be positive or negative.

The first "L" in ILOLAW can also mean "laughs," "laughed," or "laugh" depending on how ILOLAW is used in a sentence.
Next time we're GChatting at work, don't forward me your new favorite hysterical Youtube video...they always make me ILOLAW, and my boss says he'll fire me next time it happens.

Ilola is a lovely girl who has an open mind. Her kindness towards others shows the emotional soul she harnesses inside of her. Although she tries to deny it, she is a sensitive person with a tendency to care deeply of other people's opinions. But simultaneously doesn't give a shit and likes to embrace the other side of her personality which can be brave and bold. Ilola makes the world brighter just by being in it. If you ever meet an Ilola, she's a keeper. When in doubt, Ilola can provide advice although she begs you not to trust her completely even though she is right all along. She's one of the kindest people you will ever meet. Of a forgiving nature, but if you fuck with her she won't be an idiot.
'I just met a girl called Ilola,'
'Wow, Ilolas are the best people in the world! Better keep in touch, you'll need her.'

West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.
Some grebo passed with Sabbath playing on his stereo.
The Poppies are at no. 17? God, a grebo band in the charts!
They're playing nu-metal now, bloody grebos!
