LOL HAHA

Oh, that the world really LOL'd and hahad verbally as it did in the written world. This is just one of the messages - the infinite messages I've received where I've been incredulous that the author of said message was as humored as he/ she claimed: "For sure let's go to austin haha. When will you be here? LOL."

Stop this nonsense. I'm trying to feel like I'm with this guy in person. I'm always trying to get the feeling as though I'm having a real conversation with whomever I'm communicating. So I interpret the style literally, and I want to know:

Did you really think it was funny, your statement "Let's go to Austin." Was that just a joke?

Or did you not really want to go, so much so that you think it's laughable?

Or maybe "haha" means you audibly went "haha" after typing "Let's go to Austin."

Again, the laughter leads me to believe that a trip to Austin is funny to you for some reason. And I want to know why, jerk.

And why are you laughing out loud that I'm going to visit you? You're a family member whom I seldom see. It's so funny to you that I'm going to be around you soon that you must laugh out loud? Or is that a lie, as I suspect, because I know you, and you have a good, smart sense of humor, and you don't typically laugh out loud at things that aren't funny. Why would the time of my arrival to Austin be laugh-worthy? Laughing takes energy. Why is it so darn funny that I'm going to be in Austin?

I suspect that hahas and LOLs are inserted in the place of punctuation or communication of feelings. I think maybe you meant to say: "For sure let's go to Austin. That will be fun. When will you be here? I'm so excited!"

Hell, why not just say it? Why water/ dumb down your feelings? Oh, I know. That's all people know to do. They've forgotten real etiquette. So I say to all you young whipper snappers, "I love you, but please don't insult me or yourself by dumbing down your emotional expression......LOL haha MUAHAHAHA hee hee."
