Something about Mitchell Henderson struck the denizens of /b/ as funny. They were especially amused by a reference on his MySpace page to a lost iPod. Mitchell Henderson, /b/ decided, had killed himself over a lost iPod. The "an hero" meme was born. Within hours, the anonymous multitudes were wrapping the tragedy of Mitchell's death in absurdity.lulz |

In the days after the Megan Meier story became public, Lori Drew and her family found themselves in the trolls' crosshairs. Their personal information - e-mail addresses, satellite images of their home, phone numbers - spread across the Internet. One of the numbers led to a voice-mail greeting with the gleeful words "I did it for the lulz." that and "I have Mitchell's ipod" |

Someone seriously wrote a 7 page article about this attempting to describe it in smart people terms?
A corruption of "LOL" or "laugh out loud," "lulz" means the joy of disrupting another's emotional equilibrium. Another troll explained the lulz as a quasi-thermodynamic exchange between the sensitive and the cruel This is why I hate the NY Times and their overly pretentious style of writing. LULZ is a bunch of fat pimply nerds sitting in their mom's basement attempting to fuck with even bigger losers in between masturbation sessions. There, I just described lulz more sufficiently than a bloated head NY Times writer. |
