how many times is too many to use the letters lol in one post, for me personally once is too much to see it but a repetitive use of it in the same message really gets my goat up, i think we have enough adjectives and nouns in the English language that we shouldn't have to resort to resort to the extensive use of lol

But at you really laughing out loud when you type it? ... Doubt it..

It's one of the over used filler words..

Yep, it's just a filler, although I genuinely only use it when something actually gives me a chuckle.

i cringe nearly every time i see it, now I am not a prudish intellect by any means but its not funny not a statement and if the person is really laughing out loud while typing it i wish they would explain to me what is so funny as my sense of humour seems to have missed the joke

I am guilty of using it

In my defense though I do have a very self depreciating sense of humour and also can be very sarcastic. If I don't use it with a stranger who not met me, they are often likely to take every word as gospel and either think I'm being rude, or have a low self opinion of myself

It didn't seem that bad to me. No names were mentioned and I have no idea what it was about, but obviously the powers that be decided to nip it in the bud.

i agree, it is extremely childish the use of "lol" more times than not. especially when a single males posts or privates with a half arsed suggestive remark or request, and then thinks they can get away with by putting a "lol" after it.....ffs

i always thought it was to show the statement in text, was to be taken lightly, or intent to lead on to light banter! never gave it much more thought than that.

i do remember few years before i got married, a guy came into the place i was working, we chated exchanged numbers, after a few texts i put an lol he came back with whats funny about that!!! i was gobsmacked he was good looking, but i just text back to deleat my number lol
