For extra credit, I help my advanced English teacher grade tests. Vocabulary and grammar tests to be exact.
One of the questions was 'Define the word 'gnarled' (why they even bothered adding this word I don't know, because EVERYONE knows what gnarled is; duh!) and use it in a funny/ creative sentence.
Gnarled: Bumpy and twisted.
"MY MOM'S FEET ARE GNARLED LOL!

Someone ACTUALLY used 'lol' on a vocabulary test. As in a serious answer. In an ADVANCED course. And not as a 'silly emote', as a word without any punctuation or something to say that the person was being sarcastic at the premise of it being a 'funny sentence'.
Don't get me wrong, lol is okay in some situations. But it quickly degenerates into GDesque blather if used inappropriately.
A vocabulary TEST in an ADVANCED class is one example. I despair. emo

The world is going to heck in a handbasket (pardon the cliche).
