Yeah, LOL is the worst. It's not even 'useful'. I can understand acronyms like WTF or QFT cuz it saves keystrokes, but when you find something funny, is a simple 'haha' too hard to type?

If one person says negative towards what I posted, I'll just ignore it.. but if 5 people QFT what that one person said, I might be more offended/my opinion/ideas/whatever might actually change (for the better?)

LOL wins in a landslide for me. Whenever I see it posted I purposely sound it out like it wasn't an acronym. I picture this slobbering retard saying lllluuuuullll.... Just keep that in mind next time you post it.
QFT gets second place. Not only is it confusing (we've had dozens of posts and ~10 of polls on what it stands for) but it is harder to type than the full word: ditto. Why make an acronym that is more work to type and harder to pronounce than the real word?

"QFT" is harder to type than "ditto". It doesn't really save typing time.

I nominate LOL.
I hate posts with a LOL at the end of every sentence. I wonder if they do that in real life, idiots.

Yes, the reason LOL wins is that it has gone from having any value in a sentence to the equivalent of people saying "you know" while speaking. And worse still, because the other main use is to patronize the person who posted something. It's not like anyone who writes LOL is actually laughing out loud, so as the third reason it sucks we have the fact that it is an outright lie.
At least QFT, DIAF, etc. actually express what the author believes.
i completely agree with this one
mostly because its not really an acronym and partly because i have no fvcking clue where it came from
I forgot, but I made a thread about this not too long ago. It got locked pretty fast but it was basically a typical ATOT thread full of silly acronyms and typical responses to different situations.
