Lol means to "Laugh out Loud", although nowadays it is too overused in inappropriate situations to mean it's literal definition.

Meaning, Laugh Out Loud, but has achieved fine subtle nuances of it's own unique personality. For example:

"lol": "I am mildly amused..."

"lol!!": (the original laugh out loud excitement) "HAHA!!"

"LOL": (can be sarcastic) "Ha, yeah, no." /:|

"LOL!!": (this is very similar to other gleeful chatspeak such as lmao (laugh my ass off), and rofl (rolling on floor laughing) "WAAAAAHAHAHAHA HOLY SHIT THAT IS FUNNY LOL!!!"

**side note: I don't use the phrase rofl as a response to something funny; rather, saying it simply makes me laugh. Try it. Say "rofl rofl rofl!!" phonetically. lol!!
Bobby: Dude, I pissed on my shoe in the bathroom just now... =(

Chett:lol

Bobby: Then I swore and accidentally pissed on the guy next to me... *head in hands*

Chett: lol!!

Bobby: Then he punched my face quite firmly and I collapsed into the urinal whereupon he then peed upon my whole person in totality.

Chett: LOL!!! AAAAAHAHAHAHAHA ROFL ROFL ROFLMAO!

Originally webspeak, but some people are starting to use it in real life which is scary.
