    Almost always.  When I type HAHAHAHAHA, hahahaha, lmao or rotflmao I am laughing out out loud
    and will keep on laughing at whatever for a while, maybe all day, and every time I think about it.

    LOL is a type of chuckle, very funny but not usually an out loud laugh.

    I never type LOL and whoever started it should be shot.   Little pictures like this, , are harmless but the text replacement for words has caused a real decline in language skills.

    Here's a recent observation, although, having nothing to do with text speak. My mother was recently hospitalized and the LPN who was taking general information to post on the wallboard asked mother what she preferred to be called.  She said she wanted to be called Mrs. XXXXX.  He turned around and wrote on the board Misses XXXXX.  I told him how it was correctly spelled, Mrs.  He said he had never seen or heard of that and asked me what it meant.  I was horrified!

    I don't need to  type LOL, when something is funny I just touch my LOL stone and laugh a bit.
    You can buy LOL stones at the pet rock store.

    Giggling or sniggering. It's audible but just barely.

    I'm too much of an extremely whitewashed intellectual and don't want hear anything feminized! Women laugh silly too much plus I hate their chittering and tittering. All their increasing chattering and blattering. It detracts from humanity. It"s a lie. This post was edited by CosmicWunderkind at August 6, 2022 5:45 AM MDT
