    Lol stands for laugh out loud.

  • 2 decades ago

    that is an abbreviation for "laughing out loud", "laugh out loud", or less commonly "lots of laughter". It has been alleged to stand for "laughing on line" or "laugh on line", although these are most likely backronyms. LOL is a common element of Internet slang used, historically, on Usenet.
