ROFL is used too, rolling on floor laughing...Maybe that's better than LOL, since it couldn't be mixed up with the other meaning?

I guess I've used LOL for emphasis, for laughing.
I think, in general on the ‘net, the case doesn’t specify the meaning, but rather the context does (as you mentioned). This is just something my family came up with. Maybe it’ll go viral from our posts here! lol
