Gods damn it all, i hate 'lol' with the burning of a thousand suns; it is the fucking turd in every online conversation, even when used in irony.

When someone says 'lol' in conversation, I believe the only possible response is "Did you just say 'lol'? Seriously? WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU?"

Correct! You have control of the board.

I'm not allowed to say "lol" when trying to be facetious?

Awwww.

'lol' seems to have developed into a more vague expression of emotion than even ':-)'.

What I hate is when somebody messages me "lol" when they're RIGHT ACROSS THE ROOM AND IF THEY'D LAUGHED OUT LOUD I WOULD HAVE HEARD IT. They get huffy when I call them on it.

And yet, it helps sometimes to get a response that communicates that they realize you're not being serious.
