I'm laughing out loud at your question. If you were here, you would be able to hear me laughing.



If something is very funny, you make a laughing noise.

You can also laugh silently, without making any sound.

yes it does but some people use it for different things as well. lots of love is one of them but mostly it means laugh oyut loud. and no people dont always burst out laughing when they use it....they just find it funny. other ways to find things funny: rofl - rolling on floor laughing lmao - laughing my *** off thses last two ,means you usually busrt out loud laughing....but only sometimes. its funnier than lol

its used mainly in conversations over the internet, in a text, etc. People use it then because your just letting the other person know that whatever they said made you laugh, so you laughed out loud.



people don't use it when you are talking over the phone or in person because they are in your presence and/or can hear you and is pointless then



hope this helped!

Just a longated form of the popular "lol" in texting.



All it means is simply: laughing really hard about something that is funny. It is often laughing about an inside joke in a text message.



Like: OMG his hair was totally bedhead lol



Like: person1: he is so stupid

person2: I know right lol

lol = laugh out loud



people dont usually say it during conversions, and it is mainly used in text messages, in emails and on msn, etc. as slang basically



an example where you could use is:

"Hey gess wat Ryan is totally all over me lol"



also if you're interested there are other similar slangs words such as:

lmao = laughing my *** off

rofl = rolling on floor laughing

Laughing Out Loud Or

Laugh Out Loud





Detailed Explanation ::



LOL (also written lol and any other combination) is a common element of Internet slang used, historically, on Usenet but now widespread to other forms of computer-mediated communication, and even spread to face-to-face communication. It is an abbreviation for "laughing out loud" or "laugh out loud". "LOL" is one of many initialisms for expressing bodily reactions, in particular laughter, as text, including initialisms such as "ROFL" ("roll(ing) on the floor laughing"), a more emphatic expression of laughter, and "BWL" ("bursting with laughter"), above which there is "no greater compliment" according to Magid. (Other unrelated expansions include the less common "lots of luck" or "lots of love".)



The list of initialisms "grows by the month"[4] and they are collected along with emoticons and smileys into folk dictionaries which are circulated informally amongst users of Usenet, IRC, and other forms of (textual) computer-mediated communication. These initialisms are controversial, and several authors recommend against their use, either in general or in specific contexts such as business communications.



The use of LOL to express laughter is unrelated to other uses of the abbreviation, many of which (such as "lots of love") predate the Internet.[citation needed] LOL has also superseded the more-obvious "Ha!" that letter writers used to use.
