Full origin of rofl →Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between rofl and lol?
Both mark amusement, but rofl claims a stronger reaction: lol is a light acknowledgement that something was funny, while rofl says you found it genuinely hilarious. In practice lol has weakened so much that it often means little more than a friendly tone.
Is rofl still used?
It is much rarer than it was in the era of instant messenger chat, and lmao has largely taken its place. It survives as a slightly retro, knowingly dated way of saying something is funny.
