Any time you run across any net slang, just check out the Urban Dictionary. It will almost always be in there.

#11: look around at a lot of the pages on Yahoo 360.
http://360.yahoo.com
That is, if the pages load for you! Offical support and maintenance was abandoned weeks ago, but users are loyal even in the face of it being shut down.

My Mother in Law thought LOL meant “lots of love” and would always end her emails, no matter the subject, LOL.
“Going to see Grandma in the hospital…LOL”

When it becomes commonly used especially after being included in reputable dictionaries.

I checked. “lol” has not made it to Websters (yet).

But as Marshall McLuhan said “The medium is the message.”

This early work is actually right on point:

It would be even more remarkable if people did not use acronyms when typing on small devices.
