"You misunderstand the definition of the word "lulz". LULZ is a corruption of LOL, the latter being a positive joyous expression meaning to laugh out loud, while the former denotes an objectively negative response which is pleasing to certain people but is essentially rooted in schadenfreude." ~ Hopscotch

Wow, Hopscotch. I didn't know that. Thought 'lulz' was just 2009 slang for laughs and happiness. Title would

have been"Stress takes the joy..." had I known over my second cup of black coffee this morning. Thanks.




Edit: Thanks also for my new word for the day... schadenfreude

"malicious joy in the misfortunes of others," 1922, from Ger., lit.
