i was just wondering cos when you talk to someone on messenger it always goes something like

p1:hello

p2:hey lol

p2:done owt today?

p1:nope, lol

p1:you?

p2:went shopping lol

p1:get owt, lol

p2:nope lol

p1:lol

p2:lol

etc. etc..

all the while no-one actually laughed, its silly but i still say lol at it so when something funny happens you have to use lmao instead. then it seems funnier than it is. maybe we need a girlish giggle or something but that'd confuse good game :huh: . is this just me or does anyone else think we say lol too much

I whole heartedly agree with the observation that there is excessive loling.

It takes away the effect so that a lol is not really a lol anymore.

I tend to only lol when I really lol.

I can never remember loling mao, so I am unlikely to post that I have done.

Good point well made dave.

yeah, you&#39;re probably right. I generally just put a smiley if I find it slightly amusing.

So that&#39;d be me then?
Personally, it is my firm belief that a different system of communication should be established, one with condensed acronyms in lieu of "special phrases" but I do believe that certain creations, namely "lol" and "roflmao" have been abused to their respective limits.

Although I do wish that you would keep something in your mouth to suck on, a pacifier was not exactly what I had in mind.

Well that&#39;s ok as long as you drive a nice homo type focus which has 4 out of 5 stars in the safety tests&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33; (gnorf&#33;.... singular) ;)

Absolutely not

It is my custom to mention if I think a post, particularly one starting a thread, is a good one.

I thought you had a good point (it is something I have often thought myself) and that you made it well.

So I said it.
