No One Uses ‘LOL’ Online Anymore

If you are still using "LOL" at the end of any of your Facebook posts when you're laughing, then you're probably old.

If you're hip and cool, you've evolved to more sophisticated ways to express that something is funny to you online.

Facebook recently analyzed every single post and comment for one week to figure out how we "laugh" online. Here are the results:

• 15% of people "laughed" in at least one post
• 51.4% used at least one "ha", "haha" and so on
• 33.7% used a laughing emoji
• 13.1% wrote "hehe"
• And only 1.9% used "LOL"

And as you can imagine, young people were most likely to use emojis while older people were more likely to use "LOL".
