Do you guys say lol or Lel? A lot of people say both so I would really want to know which is more popular in the GC community.
They're just two different ways of saying 'Laugh Out Loud'. Lol is very direct, but lel is just an alternative. It's mainly just a preference. Some people like to use lol, some people like to use lel, and others (like me), like to use both at different times.
derived from the popular "lol", usage of lul is typically reserved for situations which make you feel uneasy
