ILA, also known as Instagram Likes Anxiety, is the fear of not getting many likes on your Instagram post. Especially on your selfies.
Person: *posts selfie* I hope I get likes on my photo, but what if I don't? Oh look I got one. Why did she just skip my photo? Did I not like her last picture? Maybe I should take it down, I haven't gotten many likes. I definitely have ILA.

Texting acronym meaning "I laughed Audibly" not to be confused with "LOL" which is never used properly. ILA is reserved for those moments when more than just a puff of air comes from your nose. Even just a little "heh" will suffice.
