They are always clearly a dig or something and I'm sorry but lol just makes it worse.

Lol

Fizzyfish · 22/05/2022 19:01

Yes, I have a 'friend' that does this, I can picture her rolling her eyes and her arrogant, sanctimonious face every time 🙄

Pandarinio · 22/05/2022 19:08

I absolutely hate it

yesthatisdrizzle · 22/05/2022 19:10

I have no idea what you mean.

lol

LadyEloise1 · 22/05/2022 19:37

Example please

BreakerOfBras · 22/05/2022 19:40

Ok, well, sorry you feel that way lol 😉

Hugasauras · 22/05/2022 19:43

I hate inappropriate 'lol'ing of any kind. You get it on here sometimes:
'My bf did this horrendous thing and I'm not sure what I should do lol'

I can only imagine those people are nervous laughers in real life or something.

There is one friend in particular who does this and you know she is using sarcasm and putting lol at the end to soften the blow. Well it doesn't and I'm so fed up with it.

Awwww, that's such a mum thing to do.

LazyJayne · 22/05/2022 19:56

I think you’re imagining it lol

GerronBuzanDoThaWomwok · 22/05/2022 20:31

I'm sure you'll get over it (sigh)

LOLLOLLOLLOL🤓😂

anotherNCsorryfolks · 22/05/2022 20:35

You'll just need to get over it lol.

No seriously though ditch the friend.

LadyEloise1 · 24/05/2022 20:22

@Thedogissnoringagain
When your Mum was young that's what lol meant Smile

Poppyseed14 · 25/05/2022 21:07

I have a friend who does this at the end of every sentence. Not being passive aggressive just every bloody sentence. Actually that's not entirely true, she sometimes replaces it with a cheeky pmsl. When nothing she's said is funny. It actually boils my piss....

Athenajm80 · 25/05/2022 21:19

Haha is worse in my opinion. I get an image of either someone deadpan saying it in a bored voice, or a robotic evil villain type.

VWCV · 25/05/2022 21:24

I only get two people using LOL. One is a friend who does it passive aggressive. The other is a man and just being funny.

TestingTestingWonTooFree · 25/05/2022 21:26

I hate it with passive aggression. I also hate it as punctuation.

Billandben444 · 25/05/2022 21:29

My sister does it on FB. She'll comment on a laid-back post about some rare wildlife or amazing building and pick the facts apart (having googled the correct information), ending with lol as though that makes her less of a plum.
