I get really self-conscious when I'm IMing someone. Especially if they are super funny and I have to laugh.
When they're funny, I type this:
Hahahahahahaha.
Why? Because I want them to picture me laughing with my mouth open, like ahhahahahahahaha - in real life.
I'm afraid that if I type 'LOL', they'll see what I see:
A person with his or her mouth in an "O" going "L-O-L-O-L-O-L" kind of lolling his or her tongue about.
Disturbing.
It's a phobia.
keep reading »What's even worse is that I know people (losers) who actually SAY LOL like a word. IN REAL LIFE.
Now THAT is fucked up.
I never believe people who say they are laughing on IM, regardless of what they type though.
My emails to you keep getting returned. Did you get the email w/the name of the base I live on and principals email addy??
I don't use LOL either. Not because I'd ever thought of your reason (but now I will, so thanks for that!) but because I think it's silly and stupid.
