Thread Name: Songs we were made to sing in school...
Subject: RE: Songs we were made to sing in school...
I always thought that LOL was "laugh out loud." There is also LMAO, and ROFL, and the combination: ROFLMAO. (Laught my ass off; roll on the floor laughing.) I fergit, but there are several Internet places where they define most of the popular acronyms. Or "initialisms" as they are more properly called.

(An acronym can be pronounced as a word, while an initialism is just the first letters of a series of words. Don't give me any of that! I am a charter member of the grammar police force, and I can have you arrested! ;-) )

And now, back to the thread which is already in progress. (Antelope Freeway, 1/4 mile...Shadow Valley condoms: if you lived here, you'd be home now...)
