I hate the fact that I know what LOL means. It makes my blood curdle. I hate it when I catch myself using it. Same goes for emotes. I'm not saying I'm better than anyone, just that I hate catching myself doing it.

You're kidding right? Everyone types 'lol' even if it's not funny, we just say it so the person that was making the joke doesn't feel like an idiot.
