Passed away.

Thanks for being a part of us, even if it wasn't always on the best of terms.

So, when you say LOL, are you really laughing out loud?

I usually am not. I think the word "lol" for me has come to mean "this is at least somewhat funny". Although I've trained myself not to laugh too loud at mildly funny things because I'd wake up my mom or annoy people at school/work

I find that if I smile at something, I'll say LOL. If I actually laugh out loud, I'll say something a little more verbose, stating how I did, indeed, laugh out loud.

Lol has come to mean something that I find amusing.

Wait, is this a trick question?

For me, lol has a range of anything from mildly amusing to waking up my parents in the middle of the night from laughing too loud.

It turns out that watching Jackass in the middle of the night is a good way to teach yourself to not laugh, while laughing.

Not really laughing out loud, most at least chuckling.

I am physically incapable of LOLing, as even when I laugh, it's more of an evil-sounding gasping chuckle than an actual laugh.

Like some sort of combination between Darth Vader's breathing and a regular chuckle?

...that actually sounds kinda cool.

I never use Internet abbreviations, I always type them out the long way if I ever use any.

If I type "lol" on MSN, it's because I have it set to an emoticon: , whereas "" makes . (It's "haha" that makes .)

I don't usually say LOL over the internet and bust out laughing, though it has invaded me in real life, it also seems to be viral!

I usually add it after chuckling about something, such as "Hahaha... lawl". You may call it silly, but some people go "Hahaha... That's funny". Well, I had no idea that it was funny! Thanks for informing me!

Oh yeah, since we're on the subject of LOL:

My family and I were watching the movie Rat Race for the first time on pay-per-view years ago. This was before DVR, so we couldn't rewind. It got to the part where they steal the Nazi car and then crash in to the WW2 veterans thing. The guy couldn't talk from his mouth being burned and he got dark lipstick on his upper lip so he looked and sounded like Hitler. We laughed so hard at the part, we missed the entire next scene with the stripper and the price. We didn't actually find out what happened until we bought it on DVD a few months later.

Oh yeah, youtube. Heres the whole scene:

That is how it has been described, actually.

And yes, people find my laugh to be a mixture of frightening and cool.

Thanks to that, I've just had a laugh so epic, it imploded on itself. Ouch.

I don't say lol. I'm more of a "heh" or I'm more specific/literal.

I hardly use the term 'lol' unless I'm saying something where the intent is total mockery such as me going "lol internet" as a response to something foolish.

I tend to use "hehe" when I'm laughing. Got that from Acmlm since he used to it a lot.

Generally, if I find something really funny, it's 'Ehehehehehe'.

Too much Kabutroid rots the brain.
