LOL

Posted by BeritaSeo - At 01.03 - Have 0 komentar
LOL or lol, an acronym for laugh(ing) out loud, or lots of laughs, is a popular element of Internet slang.



It was first used almost exclusively on Usenet, but has since become widespread in other forms of computer-mediated communication and even face-to-face communication.

However, the pre-Internet version of the acronym meant “lots of love” or “lots of luck."

Dude

Posted by BeritaSeo - At 07.00 - Have 0 komentar

The word was first used in the late 1800s as a term of mockery for young men who were overly concerned with keeping up with the latest fashions.



It later came to stand for clueless city folk (who go to dude ranches) before it morphed into our all-purpose laid-back label for a guy.
