LOL has become a
common phrase for youths of the 21st century, and anyone can say LOL whether they are truly laughing out loud or not; therefore, a new acronym, one just as easily accessible, needed to be
made to prove that the sender was
indeed laughing out loud. Thus, OLIAL, Out Loud I Am Laughing, was born, to separate the true laughing-out-loud folk from the wannabes.
