"Hah" = It made me smile or was somewhat clever.
"Haha" = It made me audibly laugh.
"Hahah" = It made me actually laugh pretty hard.

If someone I'm talking to uses anything else, I view them as a teenage girl.

 

[ScrubJay]

"heh" - always works for me, conveys that sarcastic chuckle pretty well.

 

[Izayoi]

Nothing better than the classic :lol, but that only works on GAF.

wwww for me weeb friends, and LOL for my normal friends tends to work pretty well. I use hahaha if I'm dealing with stuck-up normal friends,

 

[jerry1594]

[adamsappel]

lol

or "heh" if you want to be a smug asshole.

But, "heh" is what I use.

Comes across as sarcastic.

"Heh" is better.

Oh, good.

Point taken with haha, but "heh" sounds smug and vaguely unsettling.

Wait, now we're back here again?

 

[SmackDaddy]

I like using lololol when something actually makes me laugh.

I whole-heartedly agree with the hahah being super funny and haha being mildly funny. Its amazing how we've grown into the same laugh technique.

 

[Net_Wrecker]

:lol = I laughed for real. I still respect the term and use it how it should be used. Serious business.

"looooooooooool" or "LMAO" or "I'm dying" or "lololololol + random keyboard mashing" = I'm laughing hard, possibly to the point of tears, and/or people around me think I'm crazy.

Fun fact: Random keyboard mashing can also be a sign of frustration. It takes a professional to used it correctly.

"Heh" = Short, kinda sarcastic filler chuckle. Can be used in a bunch of different ways, usually when someone says something I really disagree with, and I'm about to drop a bomb on them.

I've thought about this too much, and will be too self aware when using the terms now. Thanks, Spring-Loaded

 

[Sol..]

When someone says heh i'm 90% certain they are telling me to fuck off in their mind.

 

[kai3345]

:lol

 

[Erehtih]

I usually just do haha and add ha depending on the funny level.

Lol I use when in more dumbfounded or what the fuck by the person's response. For example if someone starts to annoy me via texting then I'd respond "lol alright"

 

[TheTowel]

Haha - chuckle
Hahah - funnier, extra h is sign of respect. Usually sent to women
Hahaha - I laughed.

That's how the towel laughs, anyway. Game on.

 

[Tevos]

top lel

 

[Thorgal]

Thorgal: laughs! XD

but seriously, i only use the occasional lol .

 

[Enco]

Lol - nice try
Haha - that actually made me laugh
lololololol - that was pretty hilarious

 

[Einbroch]

kek bur

 

[Nether!]

Tee Hee.

 

[Not Spaceghost]

If you're actually laughing then make sure it's in all caps.

If you're only pretending to giggle to acknowledged the joke or something then a "lol" or "haha" is in order

If you're laughing sarcastically/ironically/out of absurdity then a single "hue" is fine.


I like to use "lmao" because it's more fun.

 

[JLG-]

crofl

or

teehee

 

[July]

Lol - When it's not funny but you feel bad if you don't reply
LOL- When taking the piss out of someone
Haha - When it's a bit funny
Hahaha+ - When it's very funny
HAHAHAHAHA - Hysterical. Haven't used this in a long time though.
Rofl - When someone says something you think is stupid

[DC R1D3R]

But, "heh" is what I use.

[Mr_Zombie]

Why don't you simply use emoticons? That's why they are for.

Literally writing "hahaha" (or other variations of that) seems so forced to me. Here, let me type how hard I am laughing right now and what does it sound like. :|

 

[MaXsPoT]

ههههههههههههه
^^^^
That's the standard for Arabs

 

[Baraka in the White House]

HUEHUEHUAHUEHUAHUE

This got me for some reason.

 

[JohnDoe]

hahaha
HAHAHA
ahaha
AHAHAHAHA

 

[brokenbeans]

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL!

 

[Rocket Scientist]

I prefer haha, sometimes hahaha if it's really funny, but it often seems like too much. If you're using more than three ha's you're weird. Also use lol sometimes and lmao/lmfao/LMAOOOOOOOO, but those last ones only with people I'm really close with and don't mind looking like an idiot in front of. WhatsApp let's you record yourself nowadays, so I might just record myself laughing next time.

 

[Nevasleep]

I still use lol or lolol.
Only sometimes use "Haha" as it feels like false laughter. Like Haha *please shut up*

 

[TCRS]

if you just chuckeled a simple lol. if you were laughing properly then hahaha.

 

[notBald]

HO HO HO

Marry that Christmas.

 

[Herne]

Coming from a background in text-based roleplaying, I used to use *L* a lot, where lol used to be *LOL*. Don't use it anywhere but in one of the old rp rooms, though, or maybe chatting with friends over IM.

 

[ComputerMKII]

Jajajajajajajajajajajajaja

Hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

XDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

))

All my Russian friends do this

 

[spats]

hhe

or

gyahaha

 

[dripdripsplash]

hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

 

[Magni]

When I'm chatting in:
English: haha (add more 'ha's for more laughs)
French: ^^ / lol (add more 'o's - looool for example - for more laughs)
Spanish: jaja (add more 'ja's for more laughs)
Japanese: kk / ww (add more 'k's or 'w's for more laughs)

 

[Race to be King]

hhhhhhhhhhnnnnnnnnngggggghhhh

FTFY

 

[SquiddyCracker]

LOL

LOOOOOOOOL when a friend clowns another on text.

 

[KittenMaster]

"Hahaha" when I find something legitimately funny.

"lol" or "lmao" when I'm being condescending.

Needless to say I have some habits to break.

 

[SigSig]

hahahaha and

wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

 

[Jibbed]

Haha, works just fine.

Lol, if I feel like someone is trying to be funny but it doesn't really deserve a response.
