Fake LOLs are LOIs |
Loading ...While riding the financial roller coaster in the US and foreign stock markets, it’s healthy to remember to laugh. Check out the Lol-O-Meter:
NomoreLOL.com is humorously advocating getting rid of the lie that is LOL. Lie in the fact that it’s become “increasingly obvious” that netizens are using ‘lol’ when they aren’t really laughing out loud.
Instead of using ‘lol’ NoMoreLOL recommends using ‘loi’ which stands for Laughing On the Inside.
Update 8:34am PST: And if NoMoreLOL doesn’t make you LOL, try this dog biting balloons video:
ha .. you know the old adage, “It’s funny because it’s true.” Women are the worst offenders. I always tease my GF about this exact same thing.
I guess “lol” has taken off because “Courtesy Laugh” doesn’t abbreviate well..
