Pour one out for their dearly departed lovechild, roflmao.
We got old and rolling around on the floor hurts.
I remember when rofl was ROTFL
I remember that too. I also remember when 80% of conversations online started with "a/s/l?" and canines roamed the chatrooms like never before or since.
The days before profile pictures and text. Nowadays anybody can check my profile and be none the wiser.
I knew rofl in the early 90s and did not start seeing rotfl until the later 90s.
That T was just too much! Bandwidth back then isn't what it is now.
Rotflmao was always the form i saw. I was a PowWow chat guy in the mid-90s. That and Chathouse. A lot fewer acronyms back then.
I sound like the pepperidge farm guy ...fuck me.
I was a fan of ROFLMAOZEDONG

Cousin? They were conjoined twins, known by ROFLMAO. Only one survived the operation.
lmaonade vs roflcopter
Blame rental prices. The next generation doesn't have a floor to roll on
lol, lmao even is always pronounced phonetically when I read it
Does anyone read el-o-el or ar-o-ef-el?
LMAO is definitely el mao for me.

I still use rofl because thats what iOS uses to autocomplete 🤣 emoji. It looks like lmao does too, but i always use rofl.
"rolling on the floor laughing" but i'm not. Things are funny, sure, but so funny I'm on the floor? Years pas between such moments.
"laughing my ass off" has a swear in it
need I say more?
I laugh out loud every time I type out 'lol'.
Not sincerely, just one, loud, assertive...
Because then I'm not a liar.
The worst part is the lying.
I feel like BRB kinda disappeared too. It’s like we took it for granted and one day it decided “you know what? I’m not gonna be back”.

I believe it's because you can't stretch ROFL the way you do lmaoooooooo.
The extra Os don't make sense as an abbreviation, but it's fun to shout it out

I think the pandemic made everyone realize how filthy floors are.
I instantly read this in David Attenborough's voice.
LMAO indicates something a person actually does, whereas ROFL isn't really a thing people do, so its more of a meme than it is useful.
That's my guess anyways. Like the latter is less mature because of that and so people use it less.
I hope you can get your ass reattached soon. Sucks when it comes off.
