Are LOL meant to be a good LOL or an insult? Do you prefer the LOL better than Disagree ?

    UH, Yea. Agree totally. I guess I should lax out and stop trolling for LOL's.

    I just can't seem to help myself. My bad.

    I really don’t care what they think - they can laugh, whine, disagree etc.

    Insult. Everytime. No exceptions. Ever.

    Is that what you intend when you use it or is that what you infer when you receive it. If I think something is humorous I'll use LMAO otherwise if I use LOL or LOLOLOL it's intended to be a mild diss.

    I think he probably also wondered why his lunch was being delivered by helicopter.

    People with a good sense of humor are more pleasant to be around. Laugh it off and be happy.

    My mother-in-law ends all her emails with LOL and they are never ever funny. I finally asked her about it and she told me that everyone knows LOL stood for “lots of love”. I decided to let it be

    Lots of Love is the original LOL v1.0.

    Sometimes I hit agree because the person made me smile. Or frown with disagree. So when you guys see a post with a joke and it has 20 LOLs and 1 agree, it's probably me smiling.

    See? You learn something new everyday. I always thought it was "Laughing Out Loud" from the beginning.

    Now I know why people questioned some of my responses back then.

    laughing with someone= good
    laughing at someone = bad
    laughing at oneself = silly

    anyhow, I thought LOL was invented back in aol chat room days.

  • Batman23Batman23 Posts: 4,999 ✭✭✭✭✭

    I would say it depends on the poster and the subject but in general, yes. LOLs are funny, happy, upbeat and a good thing.

    I may click LOL if I find something funny. If it is more Drama than funny... I normally just move along.

    I prefer the LOL to a Disagree. I wouldn't ask someone to change one because it upset me... Wait a minute!!! someone disagreed with me once! I'm gonna have to PM that person and have them change that! ;)

    I don’t care what they think. There are any number of people on the bourse who are going to trash me (sort of like background radiation) and if expressing opinion here will not hesitate hit disagree button.

    If someone says something meant to make us a laugh. Like “ my young daughter says she only likes coins with the sticker”. I push LOL because it’s funny.

    If someone says does this mint mark look like a double and you hit LOL. It means duh lol. How could you possibly think that. Maybe someone gets. Offended.

    If someone LOL me I take it as positive and hope I made there day brighter.

    Best place to buy !

    In the end, they are all good. LOL means you brought a smile to someone. Disagree means you were educated by second opinion (as long as the disagreement came with an explanation).

    @Kkathyl you got me good yesterday haha

    Maybe PCGS will read this thread and decide to add subcategories/choices to LOL, like they currently have for "Flag" - the obvious subcategories are 'LOL - That's Funny!', 'LOL - You're an Idiot!', and LOL - 'That's Funny, but You're Still an Idiot!'

    I want one that says:

    LOL, and yes, I AM laughing, AT you, not with you
