and be irritated by it? I have plenty of friends who do it...I love them, but I do judge them slightly for it.

I only come on MN for the lulz Grin

Pinot · 07/09/2011 16:36

I like LOLZ - it's the Z that signifies the irony, see?

is my all time fave though.

So suck it up, OP

TobyLeWolef · 07/09/2011 16:36

I have said it before and I will say it again:

"'LOL' is not punctuation."

SayCoolNowSayWhip · 07/09/2011 16:36

Twas meant in jest, usual :o

But too much lolling makes my eyes hurt

NodsSmilesandBacksAway · 07/09/2011 16:37

I don't use it as it is frowned upon here

I think I use it more here for that very reason.

this with knobs on lol

sjuperwolef · 07/09/2011 16:41

i noticed as soon as i joined there was an anti lol theme and i tend not to use it i Grin or sometimes instead. makes life that little bit more interesting when you cant insert a random lol into everything and instead have to word it out.. i like it.

SayCoolNowSayWhip · 07/09/2011 16:43

I especially detest lmfao. I mean, what the actual fuck? You're laughing your arse off? No you're frigging not.

Maybe lshalbowco?

TobyLeWolef · 07/09/2011 16:45

I tend to use , and only when I actually have.

Or 'lulz'.

worraliberty · 07/09/2011 16:50

worraliberty - I haven't told you what to do. What I told you was that it is childish to deliberately annoy people is childish and that if you are old enough to have children, you should not act like one. That was in reference to your earlier post (below)

Oh get the stick out of your arse

What I 'should or shouldn't do' is no concern of yours LOL

southeastastra · 07/09/2011 16:52

SayCoolNowSayWhip · 07/09/2011 17:00

I love what the actual fuck. It just sounds like you're making more of a point.

LadyBeagleEyes · 07/09/2011 17:18

is good but it's not laugh out loud is it?
How about an exclusive mumsnet one?
FTMML - Fuck that made me laugh.
Or a nice mild one like GTWFOP - Gosh that was funny OP.
Or something.

worraliberty · 07/09/2011 17:22

I've never used snigger since the night I was a bit drunk and I forgot the 's'

I didn't realise and went to bed...waking up to quite a furore (understandably) the next day Sad

SayCoolNowSayWhip · 07/09/2011 17:24

I GTWFOP

MardyBra · 07/09/2011 17:26

How do we collectively feel about the use of "I "

threestepsforward · 07/09/2011 17:28

I'm a discerning lol'er... I also do this a lot with the dot dot dots ...

Did anyone see the stand-up sketch when the comedian is faced with an audience reaction of lols, lmaos, rofls... t'was very funny and made me lol lots

MardyBra · 07/09/2011 17:31

I admit to abuse of the dot dot dots...

SayCoolNowSayWhip · 07/09/2011 17:33
