Maybe it is just me but there is nothing I find more obnoxious on this board than than lol and the laughing smiley face as replies. You know what Im talking about. Someone will quote something like: player X > player Y and put a whole string of

guys after it or a lol.
I mean what the **** is lol? laugh out loud. How did that ever catch on to the point it is still used. The really funny thing about it what makes me really lol is that it is almost never used for something that I can in any way fathom someone really laughing out loud.
Well this is just my rant. Ignore it if you want. I can almost guarantee that this post will get a ton of lol and

replies to it. I guess it just ticks me off when I see someone who went to some trouble to really get a point across and start a dialog and it gets 3 pages worth of i line bull responses.
don't even get me started on the rotflmao

Hemingway's parents clothed him in pretty dresses and hair ribbons.
