I don't think this is LOL

Thursday, March 24, 2011: I believe historians will note this as the day the English language died. On that day, the Oxford English Dictionary — the bastion of all that is grammatically great, the stalwart defender of laudable lexicon — officially admitted "LOL," "FYI," the heart symbol and more into its ranks.

And the world of Twitter was buzzing. Let's see what people had to say. We promise we'll use words.

DeathStarPR LOL and FYI have been added to the Oxford English Dictionary. Somewhere in 1596, Shakespeare begins to weep inexplicably.

DepressedDarth FYI followers: LOL and FYI were added to the Oxford English Dictionary today. Now, teachers can't correct their use in papers.

chrish0531 LOL and FYI have been added to Oxford English Dictionary. Is Twitting and Googling on there too?

RonyDelgarde The word "Tweet" was added to the Oxford English Dictionary. Now, teachers can accept all essays and papers to be 140 characters...lol!!
