There was an old lady who asked her grandchild what does lol mean. She said lots of love. So she started using lol at the end of sentences, for instance when trying to cheer up someone who got divorced. Darn kids!

My parents would be kind of screwed without me around helping them with technology. I wonder how complex it will be when I'm old.

Like 20 years ago there was a small war on the internet about lol meaning lots of love but laughing out loud won in the end and it was never heard from again...

Unfortunately that *is* the biggest demographic for victims of online scams.

Sadly though a lot of people then berate their grand/parents for falling for these tricks which just makes them less likely to tell people about future scenarios.
