Wojack doesn’t really belong in the mass extinction category since it is an evolution from the earliers. However Smug Wojack 2 and Tired Wojack are survivors of the earlier Wojack offshoots and Crying Nooo Soyjack is a survivor of a Soyjack offshoot.

This person Wojacks.

We should bring back the sad “OK” guy. That one has some panache.

Pour one out for their dearly departed lovechild, roflmao.

[-] somethingsnappy@lemmy.world 21 points 10 months ago

We got old and rolling around on the floor hurts.

[-] skisnow@lemmy.ca 45 points 10 months ago

I remember when rofl was ROTFL

[-] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 43 points 10 months ago

I remember that too. I also remember when 80% of conversations online started with "a/s/l?" and canines roamed the chatrooms like never before or since.

[-] DrDystopia@lemy.lol 8 points 10 months ago

The days before profile pictures and text. Nowadays anybody can check my profile and be none the wiser.

[-] Imgonnatrythis@sh.itjust.works 9 points 10 months ago

That T was just too much! Bandwidth back then isn't what it is now.

[-] nocturne@slrpnk.net 9 points 10 months ago

I knew rofl in the early 90s and did not start seeing rotfl until the later 90s.

[-] MJKee9@lemmy.world 7 points 10 months ago

Rotflmao was always the form i saw. I was a PowWow chat guy in the mid-90s. That and Chathouse. A lot fewer acronyms back then.

I sound like the pepperidge farm guy ...fuck me.

Cousin? They were conjoined twins, known by ROFLMAO. Only one survived the operation.

Blame rental prices. The next generation doesn't have a floor to roll on

[-] warm@kbin.earth 18 points 10 months ago

I still use rofl because thats what iOS uses to autocomplete 🤣 emoji. It looks like lmao does too, but i always use rofl.

[-] AppleTea@lemmy.zip 13 points 10 months ago

"rolling on the floor laughing" but i'm not. Things are funny, sure, but so funny I'm on the floor? Years pas between such moments.

"laughing my ass off" has a swear in it

need I say more?

[-] Zozano@aussie.zone 12 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

I laugh out loud every time I type out 'lol'.

Not sincerely, just one, loud, assertive...

Because then I'm not a liar.

Rofl doesn't involve ass, that's certainly why it's not popular lol.

[-] treesapx@lemmy.world 11 points 10 months ago

My guess is that the "roflcopter" turned it into a meme and memes often have lifespans.

[-] BanMe@lemmy.world 10 points 10 months ago

Roflmao has ass tho

[-] azimir@lemmy.ml 12 points 10 months ago

In my gaming circles roflstomp was quite entertaining during it's hayday.

I feel like BRB kinda disappeared too. It’s like we took it for granted and one day it decided “you know what? I’m not gonna be back”.

I believe it's because you can't stretch ROFL the way you do lmaoooooooo.

The extra Os don't make sense as an abbreviation, but it's fun to shout it out

I think the pandemic made everyone realize how filthy floors are.
