"lul" actually. Which is slang derived from a popular form of internet pictoral comedy by the name of lolcats. Purely for edification:
The first recorded use of the term "lolcat" is from the anonymous imageboard4chan.[7][8][9] The word "Lolcat" is attested as early as June 2006, and the domain name "LOLcats.com" was registered on June 14, 2006.[10] Their popularity was spread through usage on forums such as Something Awful.[11]The News Journal states that "some trace the lolcats back to the site 4chan, which features bizarre cat pictures on Saturdays, or 'Caturdays'." Ikenburg adds that the images have been "slinking around the Internet for years under various labels, but they did not become a sensation until early 2007 with the advent of I Can Has Cheezburger?"
Over the years lolcats morphed into lul cats. QED
I love that you linked each thing separately. LMFAO!!!
