LOL....!!!!

The word ‘lol’ was added to the Oxford English Dictionary in 2011. Everyone know that LOL means "laugh out loud", but while you might consider LOL and OMG to be etymological artifacts from the mobile era (because we needed less words to send a message) or the internet age, the Oxford English Dictionary's typically meticulous word-sleuthing found examples of both acronyms from 1960 and 1917, respectively. However, LOL's use are now in every single person around the world, even in people that doesn't know english.

A real difficult word...
