LOLZ

Etymology

Interjection

LOLZ

(Internet slang, leet) Alternative form of LOL

Usage notes

The final Z serves only to make the acronym look like a plural noun, or, more commonly, as a mockery of those who use z to pluralize other nouns, as opposed to s. The mockery of such people is often not done in any kind of specific context, but usually as a way to lighten up a conversation.

Etymology

A corruption of lol, probably a leet variation, treated as if it were a noun rather than an interjection and pluralized in a deliberately unconventional manner.

Interjection

lolz

(Internet slang, leet) Used to express laughter, often in a sarcastic fashion.
