Have you ever actually said "lol" in conversation?

no i haven't not lol anyway. possibly because i've never really heard a decent way to pronouce it or more likely because laughing is actually either.

ok apparently I type absolute gibberish :LOL:

either should be easier which makes that sentence a lot more sensical :|




I have heard of people saying "roffles" derived from rofl before.

I pronounce it like "Bull", but with B replaced with L.
why Lull
and not lol?

Because I'm Swedish. Pronounciation differs. It's always hard to describe pronounciation in English, since it has a different phonetic image and is quite inconsistent too.
But actually, if I'm supposed to pronounce it correctly according to Swedish standards then it should be more like lool. It should really be spellt loll for it to be pronounced the way I do, but who cares, it sounds better as short and distinct. :)

I never say pwned though. But I use the Swedish word "ägd", which means the same thing.
