Question from an (unhip) individual

Does LOL mean lots of luck, or lots of love? Cause lots of love could be weird in my opinion.

I think it used to be "lots of love" back in the BBS and/or Newsgroup days.... Yes, I'm young but I remember those days.

Now it almost universally means "laugh out loud"

I remember when it used to mean lots of love too.. makes for some highly inappropriate 'lol's from people who still use it that way!!
