I’m older gen Z and definitely use lol, lol
Its because this stupid word was everywhere when our minds were being trained on IRC and MSN lol
lol
I actually used to hate it back in the day because it was so overused but then when I hit the Skype era, I succumbed to my friends and started spamming it along with lmao because it was easy to type on a keyboard with zero effort.
Also that one evolution extinction meme of all the dead ones like rofl and roflmao.
Rest in Spaghetti Never Forgetti lol
Lol lmao
👋👏
Get bent lol
It’s really not that hard XD
xD
lol yeah this is very accurate lol
Millennials are in their 40’s ffs
That’s why it’s a middle aged guy in the meme. Also, it’s goodo have older people talking like normal humans and not corporate chatbots.
It’s not that hard lol
Technically a xennial, but yeah it’s a necessity lol
My speech is really blunt so I feel like every other thing I write would otherwise be misinterpreted as some personal attack lol
(Now reread it without the lols)
Sometimes I do exclamation points instead of lols!
I’m a Xennial and I have hated the LOL shit right from the start. Actually aside from the basic abbreviations from IRC, I tend to avoid acronyms entirely and prefer properly typed messages. Anyone sending “lol” with every message won’t see a lot of responses from me.
Roflmao

There’s no difference between this and emojis. People use them out of nervousness.
ok boomer 🍆💦☠️
What is the Gen Z approved way to express emotion?
💀
thanks 💀 lol
😭
Lol, just add it to the beginning, jk lol.
For me and the ppl I chatted/texted with was it mostly smiles like: xD xP XD xd x3 and the laughing was haha, hahahahaha, HAHAHA, sometimes lol and rofl but most of the times were lol used as a way to say “that was weird” or “that is stupid”, could also be a question “is it supposed to be funny?” Or a statement about what you said or will say “I am silly” so ppl would know they can find it funny/it is ok to laugh.
I rarely used lol for actually laughing, it was more used as “that/this is silly”. I think the younger millenniums said lol and rofl instead of smilies more often but I am unsure about that one.
Lol. Roflmao even.
