Hell Oh Hell

If there's anything that people type online that makes them sound like a blithering idiot, it's "LOL." Now, we understand it's a nice, shorthand way to express that you "laughed out loud," but it's come into such overuse by morons on Facebook and YouTube over the smallest, dumbest things, that you're better off just typing "hahaha" or "hey, that was really funny."


So we did a little experiment. We took some sage quotes from some history's greatest thinkers and added "lol" at the end to see if they sounded any dumber:


"Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever LOL."
-- Gandhi


"Nothing can bring you peace but yourself LOL."
-- Ralph Waldo Emerson


"What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us LOL."
-- Oliver Wendell Holmes


"Everyone thinks of changing the world, but no one thinks of changing himself LOL."
-- Leo Tolstoy


"The search for truth is more precious than its possession LOL."
-- Albert Einstein


Yep. They all sound like idiots now.
