My two/too terms: “lol” and “LOL”.
My bro and I, along with approximately 843699538 others on the internet, have always used “lol” for laugh out loud. When my dad started texting, though, in his early 70s, I received this message from him: “I’m sorry your cat died. lol — dad” I knew he meant “lol” to mean “lots of love”, of course, but I felt I needed to clarify. After a brief explanation of internet shorthand, our family agreed that “lol” (lowercase) would still mean “laugh out loud”, and established that “LOL” (uppercase) would mean “lots of love”. Now that he is gone, this text is one of my favorite memories. It makes me tear up but, it makes me smile — lemonSys __________________ “The mind is its own place, and in itself can make a heaven of hell, a hell of heaven.” — John Milton, Paradise Lost |

I guess I've used LOL for emphasis, for laughing. __________________ Call me "owl" for short! Hmmm....looks like some good tips in here. "Okay, enough photos. I'm a very BUSY Business Kitty, so make an appointment next time." |

There's also LMAO (Laughing my ***** off), which I think is usually used in the upper case, but like you said the context tells you the meaning. I noticed this in the emojis on here: and The "codes" for both are ROTFLMAO and rofl. As far as I know, there's no other meaning than laughing. (Unlike for lol) __________________ Call me "owl" for short! Hmmm....looks like some good tips in here. "Okay, enough photos. I'm a very BUSY Business Kitty, so make an appointment next time."

I know it's (extremely) difficult to get people to click on links (I don't know why?) buh this performance is one of Kurt's most heart-wrenching. He has his heart on his sleeve & his soul bared Nirvana - Where Did You Sleep Last Night (Live On MTV Unplugged Unedited) - YouTube __________________ |
