Netiquette

Yep another internet blog from me. Speaking of the internet, i'm gonna rant about it in this post. Particularly things people do on MSN.

How do you laugh? Would you say loudly, in an outward direction? If not, then "lol" shouldn't be used. It gives a wrong indication of the humour level within a conversation. Unless you really are laughing at a high level which would wake your neighbours, resulting in repeated visits by the police telling you to desist in your rampant gigglin, then don't lie.

And something else with "lol": It's an acronym standing for "laugh out loud". Why do people use variations of an acronym that would obviously change the meaning of it. "Lawl"?? And what about "lolz"?? What does that stand for? "laugh out loud zinger-burger"??

And those that end their portion of the conversation like this:

bob says: so yeah, that was funny.
bob says: haha
bob says: lol

Do you notice some people doin that? The double "lol". They laugh, and then they laugh again. There are pauses within their laughing patterns. Maybe they're doing some sort of action during the pauses. Something like...rolling on the floor!?? How can someone roll on the floor, and still be able to reach the keyboard to type an acronym describing how they're laughing. I tell you how: because they're lying to you!

And how many asses do you have? They must've fallen off about 6 times today. If my rear end dropped off regularly, i wouldn't be laughing about it, i'd go to the hospital and hope they could fix that serious medical problem.

This doesn't end on msn either, people are using "lol" in real life now. Why?? Laughing is a reaction that rumbles in ur stomach and causes you to crackle without much thought. Going "haha" after a joke is a natural thing, saying "lol" to a joke is just plain weird. And how do those people laugh at REALLY funny jokes? Instead of going "hahaha", do they say "lolololololol"?? Are people gonna soon replace laughinh with phrases? "Yes, that was funny. I would give it 7 lols out of ten."

So yeah, this clip below is weird. Its a song they teach in a korean primary school about good internet manners...and well...its weird.




That's it from me for now precious friends.
