See, your trying to resist the temptation of using "lol" now by replacing it with "haha" - you won't be able to keep it up for long! Its only a matter of time before you let a lol slip out! - lol  . |

I'm not sure slipping your lol's out in such a public place as this is really appropriate, DPS - lol.

Thought I would give this thread another breath again...
You know, sometimes I think lol in my head (without saying it obviously in my head  ) in real life if someone said something amusing. If lol becomes too excessive Mark will need to implement filters that replace lol with something else . |

Lmao! Well it would be interesting to see what he could do. Maybe something like "OMG - that's like sooooo funny!!!" Just as short and sweet as lol.  |

lol. I have actually let a lol or 2 slip out in real life, especially after a few drinks so its usage is becoming quite a scary reality in normal conversation as well! |

LOL!
OK, lol can never become overused, but I am afraid there will be a point in time, when two people meeting on the bus will start using "lol" while talking to each other, and that too with a straight-face (like we usually do on the net!)
Over-hearing that communication will be hilarious! LOL and more LOL |

Yes, i have to agree, I can't wait for that situation - I'm already half way there with nearly saying lol in normal conversation!
One day I think lol will actually replace the need to laugh, so therefore rather than laughing we start loling LOL |

This has already started in our office. We laugh and then say lol on good jokes. bad jokes get LOL and no laughter.
