LULZ FISTING LULZ!!!11

█▄ █▄█ █▄ ▀█▄ is laughter at someone else's expense (from the German concept of "Schadenfreude".) This makes it inherently superior to lesser forms of humor. Just as the element of surprise transforms the physical act of love into something beautiful, the anguish of a laughed-at victim transforms lol into lulz, making it longer, girthier, and more pleasurable. Lulz is engaged in by Internet users who have witnessed one major economic/environmental/political disaster too many, and who thus view a state of voluntary, gleeful sociopathy over the world's current apocalyptic state, which is superior to being continually emo.

The term lulz was coined by Jameth, and is the only good reason to do anything, from trolling to rape. After every action taken, you must make the epilogic dubious disclaimer: "I did it for the lulz". Sometimes you may see the word spelled as luls but only if you are reading something written by a faggot.

Overview

Beginning as a plural variant of lol, Lulz was originally an exclamation but is now often just used as a noun meaning interesting or funny internet content.

According to the media, Lulz is a corruption of LOL, which stands for laugh out loud. It is part of sekrit code used by evil domestic terrorists in their attempt to ruin innocent peoples' lives. These terrorists, known as "Anonymous" get lots of "lulz" from staging "invasions" of children's websites such as Habbo Hotel.

According to Mattathias Schwartz of the New York Times, Lulz is "how trolls keeps score" and is defined as "the joy of disrupting another’s emotional equilibrium". Given that lulz has been extensively covered by both Fox and the NYT, it would seem to be notable; however, it is only accorded one small section of the Wikipedia article on Lol.

Lulz is the one unifying force in the world. Those experiencing it are bonded mentally and emotionally. It is the greatest experience you will ever have. Your first 'lulz' is akin to achieving your first orgasm, only magnified. If one is truly experiencing the lulz, they will be invulnerable to all attack. Lulz is known to show other life lessons by any means necessary, such as to not download CP, especially under the alias you use for everything else and to not be an attention whore.

Examples:

We will come together to strengthen our intelligence capabilities to know the plans of terrorists before they act and to find the lulz before they strike.

IRL lulz

Further developments

The beginning

“	Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters. And God said, "Let there be lulz," and there was lulz. God saw that the lulz was good, and He separated the lulz from the unfunny. God called the lulz "Encyclopedia Dramatica," and the Unfunny he called "Uncyclopedia." And there was pr0n, and there was pedophiles — the first internets.	„
—Genesis - The Bible

Ancient version

In ancient times they referred to lulz as lvlz as in:

<augustus> Byzantivm was pvvnd this morning.
<nerva> lvlz

An early scholar of lulz was the Roman poet Lucretius, who described the phenomenon at least one hundred years ago:

“	It is pleasant, when the sea is high and the winds are dashing the waves abovt, to watch from the shore the strvggles of another. LVLZ	„
—Romans loev Schadenfreude

Modern Times

Ask not what your lulz can do for you, but what you can do for your lulz. - John F. Kennedy.

Totalulz

n. to be completely engulfed in hilarity; can also mean a completely uniform lol. Example:

<mike> n00bs are stupid
<dan> lol
<bob> lol
<alf> lol
<mike> totalulz

The sealclap

Extreme totalulz can induce a sealclap, an involuntary clapping motion.

In the Good lulz as linked here, the basement dweller subject complements his fit of totalulz with two distinct sealclaps.

The lulz scale

The Lulz Scale, currently in development by Encyclopedia Dramatica staff, will be used to rate everything OTI on a simple scale of Lulz. The Lulz Scale will vary between 0 and Over 9,000.

Frunz

Frunz is the complete opposite of lulz. See also anti-lulz.

Roffulz

Theoretical lulzologists have recently speculated on the existence of a more hilarious form of comedy which they have coined roffulz. Computers have simulated the presence of roffulz causes such a disturbance in the quantum lulz field that it can rip the fabric of spacetime resulting in much more roffulz; this forms a raging chain reaction which can only be halted by the banhammer. It has not yet been observed irl, only in simulations, but they predict examples are bound to show up eventually.

Limits of lulz

No matter how lulzy you think something is, it has a chance of being anti-lulz or just plain wrong:

“	Some times not even the lulz are worth looking at fuckloads of weird furry pornography.	„
—Einsidler

Fun fact

The word "lul" means cock in the Dutch language, so whenever someone says "I did it for the lulz" They are quite literally saying "I did it for the penises"
