I thought it was Wear the fox hat?

Or lots of love perhaps?

Never heard it mean that

Noone's ever said "Lots of Love" to you?!? Despite being the most loveable cycling emperor around?!?

Never heard it abbreviated LOL. Yes I get the full phrase from drivers all the time out riding.

I always used it as laugh out loud but iirc when early text speak moved into cycling forums I recall it being discussed a few times that ppl used it n texting, thinking it meant lots of love. Probably a total misunderstanding by older people but it's a good example of acronyms being misused or misunderstood.

Someone's laughing and the other person is feeling the ungiven love! LOL!

Yes there's a story that someone was using LOL as Lots of Love, resulting in a conversation that went something like:

A: Just heard that my grandma died. I'm very upset.
B: LOL

Lick of love, what your mum did with a hankie to stop you going out to play with a milk or other food moustache!?

PS it stopped for me ehen I was about 4 and started school and I kept shrugging her off. Definitely not still happening.

Yup - one of those things everyone says they will never do

and then catches themselves doing it when they have a kid!!


did see something today on another forum (I know - sorry) which ended LOL
and neither the laughing idea or love idea were in the least bit appropriate

which is why I get confused about what on Earth some people are on about!
