I got LOL wrong (the only one I was confident on) because I put "laugh out loud" instead of "laughing out loud"

And you are correct - it's "laugh out loud." I've never heard "laughing out loud" until today.

Please stop with the quizzes where you have to fill in the answer. Especially frustrating when the wording has to be perfect.

Why? If the wording isn't right then the answer is wrong.

Yeah that answer annoyed me, I've never used the acronym TBA for what the apparent correct answer was. Have always used it as "To Be Advised"

Acronym - an abbreviation that is pronounced as a word. eg. N.A.S.A. or N.A.T.O. When it’s just a set of letters that are spoken as the individual letters eg. TBH or IMHO then it’s not an acronym it’s just an abbreviation. You can’t smash the language around to suit your own needs.

It's an initialism. Acronyms and initialisms are specific types of abbreviations.

LOL IS LAUGH OUT LOUD. BFF IS BEST FRIEND FOREVER. "LOLING" IS LAUGHING OUT LOUD. "BFFS" IS BEST FRIENDS FOREVER. SHUT THE F**K UP BP.

Never heard of ootd before, but that's ok. BFF is best friend (singular) forever though. As in "Helen is my BFF - we are BFFs"

Boomer got 'em all! LOL (I am laughing, not laugh - makes no sense otherwise.)
