Do you say 'lol' in real life?

[Kaijinmaru 37]

No, my wife has slipped up a few times and said it offline. At which time she receives a deadpan stare saying "Really?".

[VulpineTaco 525]

No. Not at all. That's silly.

Unless I say "lawlz for the Tumblrz."

[Perradial 114]

No, unless I'm imitating someone saying it. It just doesn't sound right and why not just laugh?

[DATA EXPUNGED 324]

I will only say "lol" in day to day conversation if I am trying to mock somebody who actually does. 

[Clawdeen 14,241]

Nope, had a coworker who did though and it just sounded so weird. I only use it online or when I text.

[Mesme Rize 15,683]

There are some internet slangs i use in real life and lol is one of them.

[TSD 86]

I don't even say it online. Never really got the whole AIM slang thing.

 

Just not me I suppose.

 

But I generally don't get into the twitters, myspaces, etc.

[Odyssey 5,716]

I do, but only when I'm around with friends or my brother. They like to say many Internet slang or memes out loud.

[Admiral Regulus 2,769]

A lot of the time I'll think "lol" in my head, but in reality I just laugh.

[websterhamster 203]

Oh yes, all the time. I hear other people say it sometimes, too.

[Discordian 6,015]

Kind of. I wrote a note to the boss at work and wrote down "lol" at the end of the message.

[RainbowTashie 378]

Saying lol in real life is a habit I've someone found myself slip into over the last year. When It was mentioned someone's 9 year old daughter also said lol there was some face-palming. So do you say lol in real life?

I tend to say it to my little sister. Odd i know but she's at that age where text speak is a big thing other than that not often really.

[Splendormane 203]

Lol yes i do XD i say lol more in real life then online

[#1FluttershyFan 206]

I'm in very few situations where I would say it in real life, online or off. It seems tedious and I much prefer laughing to saying any acronym.

[Tameless 979]

No I do not.

 

That's very strange if you do.. I mean why can't you just laugh. Saying "Lol" makes you sound like a machine.

[MysticShine 529]

Never would I let Lol slip out of my mouth.

 

I have a modern times-hating reputation to maintain.

[Stardust 641]

I have said that yeah along with add me on FB (when I still had it lol)

[gamecubeguy214 2,512]

Yes, but only if I'm pretending that something is funny when it really isn't. Even then, I tend to gravitate towards the gnome's laugh from You've Been Gnomed.

[Sonic Shimmer 4,132]

No, I just laugh instead.

[Emerald Claus 24,872]

Yep! All the time. One of my best friends does the same thing, actually.

[Tom Gallagher 33,588]

I'm not that stupid. 

[Midnight Danny 9,025]

Maybe sometimes when l write, but in real life, never. 

[Rainbow Cloud 17,993]

No, I tend to just laugh for real 

[They call me Loyalty 1,948]

What? No. That does not make any sense. I rarely laugh, but If I do, it is an honest and hearty laughter. Many of the people that use that word rarely express laughter when they do.

[DixonTheAdversary 1,632]

Nope. I don't even use "LOL" when typing...
