what is a tla and what's wrong with lol?
TLA: Three Letter Acronym.
Nowt wrong with LOL in the context of something actually being funny.

yeah it's just as a nervous tic that bothers me. Whenever I've gotten into a g-chat or text conversation that devolves into that, I start to feel like neither of us are sure whether either of us are being sincere.

No beef, but if I had a nickel for every time I've clicked on a newly-updated bookmark only to find a lolz from ya vg, I'd at least have $5.
Most of them are lolz to witty and wry comments I've said, so you got a pass, but just saying.

I'm sure someone has mentioned this already but who really thinks i'm going to sit here and watch a pre-video Youtube advert that lasts between 1:40 and 3:59? If you don't tell me what your product is in the five seconds before i'm allowed to press "skip" i am never going to know what it is.

similarly, 30-second ads (on other site) preceding clips that are only a couple minutes long at most.

pre-employment personality screenings. most of the questions are so ambiguous as to be meaningless, or else there's just no way to answer without looking like an asshole. the one that stuck out this morning was "do you agree that the police deserve more power?" (first of all: to do what? to whom?) if i say yes, i look like i'm advocating for some sort of martial-law big-government society. if i say no, i look like an anti-authoritarian occupy type who clearly has something to hide.

Xp to mookie. I tutor hs students in writing and the essay prompts they are assigned are like that--really vague and you need to accept a bunch of tenuous premises before you can even begin to answer them. One recent example: Do you think the American Dream is still alive?

i worked for a now-defunct bookstore chain in the late 90s that i'm told later used these half-assed questionnaires to screen candidates. one acquaintance of mine, who had been a manager at that very chain years earlier and was totally awesome, failed the test for reasons similar to the question you raised.
anyway i'm pretty sure that you pass by advocating for martial-law society
― mookieproof, Friday, 14 June 2013 00:41 (eleven years ago) link
that police question sounds like a trap of some kind! maybe you have to answer honestly to avoid the trap.
― veryupsetmom (harbl), Friday, 14 June 2013 00:41 (eleven years ago) link
'do you think' is v. different from 'do you agree'
― mookieproof, Friday, 14 June 2013 00:42 (eleven years ago) link
i totally advocated for martial law btw

Similarly the often-used phrase along the lines of "We have up to 1 million Xs--or even more!"
So you mean you have OVER 1 million Xs?
