i'm sorry to have to tell you, but grandma is dead LOL

lol it’s quite easy if you put it first.
I’m gen z rather than a millennial, but for me putting lol at the start of a sentence just means I have a 75% chance of putting multiples lol in the sentence.
I’ve recognized this enough times that now when it happens there’s a little alarm that goes off in my head to remove some lols
Well, at least we grew out of adding xD to the end of everything! XDDD
xDeez Nuts Hahahahahahahahahahahhaahhaahahahahahhahahahahahahahaahahhahahahahahahajajahauaauuaha I'm so funny
I cringe internally at the part of me that once used XD unironically hahaha
life is a joke lol
We're all borrowed matter dancing upon the firmament of an indefinable thing called reality, and our conscious existence is nothing more than an emergent property of this farce within a farce, lol
Sorry for your loss, lol
As an elder millennial, I don't use "lol," but you'll have to take : ) from my cold, dead hands.
: )
I live in a giant bucket.
Tuesdays coming, did you remember to bring your coat?
DoYOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHH!
Hit em with the Japanese imports ^ _ ^
why that long face? :)
I’m so glad woot died out : )
lol, fuck that
I'm gen z lol
I'm gen z , lol
Unrelatable lmao
it’s just another intonation marker, a hedging particle, or a pragmatic tone indicator.
it signals the sentence is for comradery, but not immediate action
I'll see you a "haha"
Yeah, I never became a lol'er, dunno whether or of spite or what, but haha was my go-to response for someone said something that I'm supposed to express some reaction of humor to. Heh sometimes. Ha has a different feel to it.
Technically a xennial, but yeah it's a necessity lol
My speech is really blunt so I feel like every other thing I write would otherwise be misinterpreted as some personal attack lol
(Now reread it without the lols)
I'm a Xennial and I have hated the LOL shit right from the start. Actually aside from the basic abbreviations from IRC, I tend to avoid acronyms entirely and prefer properly typed messages. Anyone sending "lol" with every message won't see a lot of responses from me.
What is the Gen Z approved way to express emotion?
I actually used to hate it back in the day because it was so overused but then when I hit the Skype era, I succumbed to my friends and started spamming it along with lmao because it was easy to type on a keyboard with zero effort.
Also that one evolution extinction meme of all the dead ones like rofl and roflmao.
Rest in Spaghetti Never Forgetti lol
For me and the ppl I chatted/texted with was it mostly smiles like: xD xP XD xd x3 and the laughing was haha, hahahahaha, HAHAHA, sometimes lol and rofl but most of the times were lol used as a way to say "that was weird" or "that is stupid", could also be a question "is it supposed to be funny?" Or a statement about what you said or will say "I am silly" so ppl would know they can find it funny/it is ok to laugh.
I rarely used lol for actually laughing, it was more used as "that/this is silly". I think the younger millenniums said lol and rofl instead of smilies more often but I am unsure about that one.
respond ending your sentence with "haha hahaha haaa" they love that haha hahaha haaa
For me the thing which i do the most is adding "..." Multiple times between the sentences or at the last of the sentences. 😭
I finally found out about the ellipses phenomenon amongst the older gen a while ago, and how it was a common format in writing that they tried to transfer to texting and millennials constantly misinterpret as it passive aggression, which causes all sorts of anxiety lol
Shit you not, once asked for a recommendation letter from a summer job employer on campus for an open mic music lounge I hadn't visited in a long time, and all he emailed me back was
"Sure..."
Needless to say, I thought "Oh fuck, he hates me. Nevermind. I should have come by more-" and never bothered to follow up on it lmfao
I thought it was only me…
the problem is sending a signal from your hand.
