**A 6:45 AM humor blog**

You are lying to me. Not all of you, but a lot of you here on SP are lying to me. And I'm catching on.

Oh, yes, I am catching on.

I may not comment on each and every blog that I read, but I try to read each and every blog that you post. I want to keep track of your story--I am friends with you because I find you interesting, and I want to see your life develop through SP, just like you can see mine develop through SP.

But I have noticed a trend... a terrible trend... a 21st century trend... And I am realizing something...

Most of you will type ell oh ell... and I know that you are lying.

"I walked the dog yesterday lol."

"And I thought lol that maybe I could really lose the weight lol!"

"Lol I didn't even think about it that way before."

I am opening my eyes, and seeing through your lies. Your lies that you post every day... Ell Oh Ell. Because I have realized that you are, most likely, NOT laughing out loud at that moment!

No, LOL has turned into some sort of sick punctuation, a replacement or preparation for basic sentence structure. I used to believe that my SP friends were full of laughter, and maybe that is true, but now I know your dark secret.

You are NOT actually laughing out loud! You are just typing three letters in your blog because... because...

I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHY. TELL ME. TELL ME YOUR SECRETS. I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY YOU INSIST ON INFORMING ME THAT YOU ARE LAUGHING OUT LOUD WHEN YOU CLEARLY ARE NOT. TEEELLLLLLL MEEEEEEEEE!!!!

And it's everyone... Everyone does it... Even my own mother! I was visiting her one day, and I watched her write a message to her friend, and I saw her type out the letters...

L...

O...

L...

And you know what?

She was not laughing out loud. Not even a chuckle, or a giggle.

And neither am I.

Okay, seriously though, what is this current internet phenomenon? I really don't get it. And EVERYONE does it! Even my own mother! (YEAH, MENNOLY--I AM WATCHING YOU.) And I just don't get it!

This doesn't actually annoy me, but it DOES make ME "Ell Oh Ell" because... really?

"I walked the dog HAHAHAHAHAHA ISN'T THAT SO FUNNY?!"

I just don't get it, people. And here I thought I was an internet generation child.

Sigh.

I hope you all have a wonderful Labor Day. I'm off to the Renn Faire for mostly play, some work, and do have a great overall day. I hope you all have an equally wonderful day, whether it's with friends, family, or just relaxing on your own.
