I have an online friend with whom i spend some time in Gtalk daily.He is from our country and and he is not that proficient in English he has an weird habit of adding LOL in every message he enters in the chat. Few days back i was really busy with my offline work so i couldnt find any time to hang out with him.After a gap of one week we met again me--How are you doing Dude him--LOL i am doing good me--you have sent me a mail regarding some work right.what was that? him--It was an project friend but i couldnt complete it LOL me--Why? him---I was down with Viral Fever LOL and i had to take rest LOL so i passed on that project to another one I cant stop myself when he adds an LOL in every sentence he types in.As i am used to his manerism i dont find it funny anymore but i had a good time chatting with him for the Initially. Do You have any friends who have funny manerisms share your experience.

i have come across people with mannerism not online but otherwise.one of my friend had this peculiar habit of saying very good to everything.once my other friend who was looking very sad and came upto us and told that she got fired from her job and instantaneously the other friend said very good.this irritated her so much that she refused to talk since few days.

Me too. I seem to have this habit too, at times, but not every conversation would I put lol.. that would be too funny, ha.. But I think your friend wants to show that he is happy and jovial whenever chatting with you... though it's weird.. LOL..

Hi sunnycool, like I just said to Alice I always thought that using LOL meant lots of love. I'm not into text speak so I generally get annoying and ask for it to be translated when people use it but just translated that one myself, wrongly.

Nice discussion sunnycool. :) I havent got much to add here. I may have noticed, but offhand I dont recollect. :) Just came to check what others had to say. I enjoyed your description. :) L2E is right. This person doesn't know the meaning of LOL. :)

Hi sunny cool: It must be annoying a person that use the same word over and over again, but it's nice at the same time that you can understand the reasons that he use a mannerism because od the languaje limits. I would not think it would be disrrespectful that you try to explain that he doesn't have to use lol for every sentence including those that are not even funny. Lol. XD. Even people that have a high level in a languaje use manerisms in their conversations. Thanks for telling us your experience. Have a nice day. -Alvaro.

hi starsailor,neither do i think that he would be offended for pointing out his mistake which can land him in problems if it is not comtrolled but a slight hesitation thats it.I would explain him about this in tommorows chat with him.Thank you for taking time for responding friend.have a great day.

ahahas! that was funny! Actually, there are people who says LOL in real life too. It's quite funny actually 'cause they make it seem as if we can see them laughing out loud! In fact, just the other day a friend of mine had a can of drink with an emoticon on it and the word LOL. I couldn't help but lol at that

hi snowstormz,it strange that people use this abbreviation instead of laughing loud loudly with friends in real time.Just imagine How would it be if all the people around are laughing loudly to their fullest and one guy only utters LOL LOL rather than laughing.Thank you for responding.good day.
