Varieties of LOL Used by Bloggers

Posted on October 20, 2005

Using LOL, LMAO and ROFL may no longer be good enough to explain how funny something is. Some bloggers are using new LOL-based words to explain how hilarious something is. Here are just a few of them:

• ROFLcopter
• LOLLERSKATES
• OMFGDactols
• LOLSA
• LOLLERCOASTER
  Wiktionary says a ROFLcopter is a "helicopter or gyrocopter emblazoned with the word 'ROFL'" and LOLLERSKATES is explained by the ASCII art above of a person skating on LOL skates. LOL and ROFL is enough for us but some bloggers really want to expand on the acronym.
