Lol bro younger generations just say random shit to sound cool.

I'm remembering how many times I said "epic" or phonetically pronounced "lulz" in every day speech when I was younger. It's just something kids do.

I started saying rofl ironically, because my friends weren't really internet people. Then i couldn't stop anymore.
