Well, I'll tell you what ...

Suppose someone just responded to your post with a "LOL", or worse, a
"ROFLMAO"; What you said wasn't meant to be particularly funny. My point is
that I think "LOL" is becoming WAY overused. When I see people "LOL"ing at
*everything*, I have to ask myself - "Are you *really* laughing out loud at
every post that comes you way?" I think it's just become a catch-all
silliness for those who can't think of anything clever to say.

Gee - where'd *that* come from? Maybe I'm just cranky. I haven't been
sleeping right lately, and it's really getting on my nerves. (NLOL).
