At least get it off your chest it's not good to have your mind overfilled you might say something you don't want to day when irritated or mad

This rant mostly applies to Facebook users.
It always annoys me when people use "lol" and "haha" as a pause. For instance, "Just went shopping lol. It was fun!" Or, "Hey what's up haha." What's so funny about going shopping? You couldn't just use a period, or combine the two sentences so it doesn't look so awkward? Why is asking me "what's up" funny? I always feel like there are shady undertones when people use them as a pause in sentences. Maybe I'm just always missing out on some little detail?

I feel like this ALL the time.  It's not even just Facebook, though. It may be more common there, but I see it on Twitter and Tumblr frequently.

I agree.
I always feel like they aren't taking me seriously when they reply with anything including "haha", "lol or "lmao". Like, if I'm talking to a friend and I say that I'm feeling sad, and they reply, "lol aw why", it feels condescending.

I kind of have a habit of adding lol to the end of things
I know it's annoying, but I seem to do it without thinking about it.

I think/hope it's just certain people's way of trying to be casual, not intentional condescension.  A while ago, my mom posted something on FB about our cat dying and several of the messages replying to her post ended in "haha". Like.......

I do it too sometimes, but it just shows how weird our generation is. Instead of punctuation, we just add a few "lol" and "haha" in there. I just caught myself trying to add "haha" to the end of this.  I always feel like if I don't say "haha" somewhere in a conversation, I seem too serious.

I often see and use "lol" and "haha" as text versions of a nervous or awkward laugh, but that might just be me.

Yeah, I've noticed that people use it at really awkward times. When my stepfather passed away, I received dozens of text messages from people, and a few of them had "lol" somewhere in the message (usually after something silly, meant to cheer me up), and it just felt really weird and inappropriate. It's a nervous habit, I guess.

You KNOW your sleep deprived when your hearing the sound of cows outside your window, and you live in a city.

Also, someone snatched the username Hollywood apparently. And I'm not pleased.
Should I go back to my ORIGINAL name? 'HollywoodForever'. or even HollywoodCory?

Seriously, I've always hated your name as 'J P' because I confused you with the other JP but 'HollywoodCory' would be the best fit, honestly. It's up to you, though, bro!

I use HollywoodCory for literally everything else. I was hoping I could go back to using 'Hollywood'.
Let me sleep on this, and I'll decide tomorrow.

I hate dealing with drunks. They are just flat out messy and spilling some sour tea.

I wish this place had a TV. You can only listen to the same songs on the radio for so long.

I've been looking for a movie, Eastern Promises, for about 5 years now. I bought it a couple months ago and never watched it. I'm watching it now and I'm realizing that I had what I was looking for all along. I was still trying to figure out the name of the movie, but it was sitting upstairs for months. All I had to do was put it in.
