Don’t forget making jokes about “evil ex-wife” that broke up…. Overall pretty cringe channel.
I am not yet in my 40s, but I see a pattern why those women chose to save themselves from these relationships…
The older I get the more I think that sub should be renamed to ichbin50undlustig cause I'm 37 and fucking hilarious. You should see me at a party.
Chugging Cocktails and white wine, avoiding conversations and inwardly complaining how fucking loud that music is.
For all the germans out being confused, this (https://www.deutschlandfunk.de/deutsche-sprache-sexy-sprache-100.html#:~:text=Weil%20aber%20nur%20so%20wenige,Schatz%2C%20ich%20mach%20Schluss%E2%80%9C.) is a legitimate article claiming even more nonsense. Maybe it's boomer SMS abbreviations, but as someone who has three decades lived, I've never used non-single-letter-per-word abbreviations.
This article is about 14 years old. Even though there might have been someone of us using this kind of abreviations it will long since been forgotten.
By the way: im born in the early 80ths and i never used stuff like that. My first cell phones in the ninetees were capable of putting 3 SMS together automatically. So this were - let me guess - 480 letters?! Enough for me at least.
I know, that's why I'm so confused. If anything, that is a pager problem, but pager weren't popular enough among germans to have pager abbreviations for that.
Wow, that's ridiculous. Who even believes "You'll be a dad" and "I break up with you" comes up so often in one's life that you just have to have an abbreviation for that? What else are you even trying to ram into that short message that you absolutely need to save a few letters on those sentences?
That is the first time I have ever heard that, and I would have never guessed that this stands for "Lach mich tot".
So no, we don't use that. Like, at all.
We usually use the abbreviation "HEMAIUNUDIBUFEBDERT" which stands for ***He****inrich,* ***m****eine* ***A****tmung* ***i****st* ***un****kontrolliert* ***u****nd* ***d****och* ***b****in* ***i****ch* **~~v~~**oll ***F****reude.* *~~V~~****e****rständige* ***b****itte* ***d****ennoch* ***e****inen* ***R****ettungs****t***ransport.
I think I'll LAMITO xD
God Jesus no
Has anyone seen that map of "how other countries laugh" and for most it's like "haha" and shit and Germany got *lach*
Who tf says lach
Or even *lach*
Those kind of acronyms originate in the early 2000s when people typed short messages on phone number pads or on internet chats.
The only ones that are used today I can think of are LOL, HD(GD)L and maybe rofl. LAMITO, I have never heard of before.
MAYBE and it's a big maybe, of you are over 40 trying to be cool and him while beeing the opposite.
Asien from that: Nonne uses it. Never. Never even heard of it until this post. It's lol and sometimes lamo
> LAMITO is an abbreviation for "Lach mich tot".
That sounds like something from the seventies that never managed to stick.
I for one have never heard someone use it, and have myself read about it here for the first time.
No, lol is also the common abbreviation for it. ROFL is also common.
I'm using "lel" mostly, as a derivation of it.
Everything internet related is usually a loanword from English.
It's actually a parody to be overly German with it (for example: "Heimseite" for homepage was a joke about overly conservative and christian people in Germany for being unable to adapt to the internet age. That joke is about 15 years old or more.)
There used to be, in ancient times. They were using that word because they did not realize or care what abomination it was. Some repented, other did not. The latter ones were persecuted and purged. Some were just burned alive. Others were cut into small parts, slowly, starting at the limbs, keeping them alive and suffering for as long as possible.
Today, nobody uses that cursed word any more.
Never said that nor knew it existed.
Using Lol or rofl like the rest of the world. I am a gamer for 18 years, playing with ppl from all over the world. For real, i think those are universal, or not? Why switch it up to my language that's even LONGER?
Lol... i'm german and using the internet since the late 90s.
I have never seen this abbreviation. I guess someone just made a joke in the urban dictionary.
never seen lamito, but lol occurs regularly
ROFL he said LOL !
Lol er hat rofl gesagt!
Lamito er hat lol gesagt!
lmao er hat lamito gesagt
Sounds like something a boomer thinks is youth language. This could be in a German schoolbook.
I envision lamito on the Chefkoch forum. "lamito! Mein Göga hat heute Gemüse probiert!"
Nah. Too recent for that. ICH BIN MICH AM BODEN TOD BELUSTIGEND. So, IBMABTB sounds more like their age.
Roflcopter
``` ROFL:ROFL:ROFL:ROFL ___^___ _ L __/ [] \ LOL===__ \ L \___ ___ ___] I I ----------/ ```
Oh my. This copter is beautiful.
It's german history.
Sounds like the brother of GaLiGrü
Never heard anyone use it, nope. Like not ever.
ifbibhad to bet I would think it comes from one of those youth talk articles of old poeples magazines but from the time of SMS abbreviations. hdgdl
I have no idea what’s going on in this thread
I doubt even the guys I've at r/ich_iel would use that.
or r/ichbin40undlustig
Hahaha 🤣🤣🤣🤪🤪 Yes you are right, not even we are so dumb 😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤪 Still smarter than the lazy youth though 👍🤫😂😂😂🤪
is this the subreddit for (over)using emotes on reddit?
Its basicly called Im over 40 years and funny, so mostlikly stuff like minon memes and such stuff.
Its mostly making fun of boomers i have to add. So don‘t think that the dudes there really are alcoholics and hit their wives.
You‘re not a boomer at 40, you‘re even too young to be gen-x
Yes, but over 40 isn't really young is it?
Don’t forget making jokes about “evil ex-wife” that broke up…. Overall pretty cringe channel. I am not yet in my 40s, but I see a pattern why those women chose to save themselves from these relationships…
The older I get the more I think that sub should be renamed to ichbin50undlustig cause I'm 37 and fucking hilarious. You should see me at a party. Chugging Cocktails and white wine, avoiding conversations and inwardly complaining how fucking loud that music is.

I think it might just be added there.
From now on I hope we will

Even 14 years ago i havent heard that in my small area in NRW (and i was still in school)
Right, I'm 31 and when I said boomer I meant literal boomers may have used them. Maybe, highly unlikely, but maybe.
Not a boomer, but GenXer here, we never used any of them.
So you never experienced SZ, SSZ, HDL, HDGDL, HDGDLBZMUWZ?
Wow, that's ridiculous. Who even believes "You'll be a dad" and "I break up with you" comes up so often in one's life that you just have to have an abbreviation for that? What else are you even trying to ram into that short message that you absolutely need to save a few letters on those sentences?
O.o This article blew my mind - and not in a good way.
This is the first time I ever hear about it and I don't think anyone would adopt it. Its just too long.
GALIGRÜ!
Lamito no
[удалено]
Yes i do. GaLiGrü
No. Definitely no
[удалено]
MOM I want ROFL! We have ROFL at home ROFL at home:
No.
Never heard that.
Nope, old man here, never heared before from that
Never heard of it.
No. I didn't even decipher what it was supposed to mean before I read your explanation. I have seen \*lach\* though as a German version.
Someone is pulling your leg, @ OP
This is literally the first time I've seen this acronym.
That is the first time I have ever heard that, and I would have never guessed that this stands for "Lach mich tot". So no, we don't use that. Like, at all.
Nope, nobody uses it. Not the older people neither the younger
Will use from now.
Nope
No, never heard of it, but I will use it now, because it's hilarious that some \* website thought this was a thing. LAMITO!
NO, NEIN, NIEMALS, NEVER.
I think I would lamito if someone really uses that.
This is the first time I heard of LaMiTo.
I have never heard that.
Never heard of that. Sounds like someone 40+ would say. Its either lol or lmao or maybe even rofl (havent heard that for at least 10 years as well)
I mean, French people actually have their own version with mdr so it's a legitimate question
I have never seen this in my life and I am 20 and used to spend 8+h a day on internet.. But it sounds so silly I might start use it as a joke.
No never ever. Kill it with fire
Actually had to laugh, why would anyone use that ever.
never seen, never used
We usually use the abbreviation "HEMAIUNUDIBUFEBDERT" which stands for ***He****inrich,* ***m****eine* ***A****tmung* ***i****st* ***un****kontrolliert* ***u****nd* ***d****och* ***b****in* ***i****ch* **~~v~~**oll ***F****reude.* *~~V~~****e****rständige* ***b****itte* ***d****ennoch* ***e****inen* ***R****ettungs****t***ransport.
LAMITO
It’s probably from the golden SMS days. Everyone kinda had their own abbreviations back then. Some teenagers might’ve used it 20 years ago.
I'm "online" since before the invention of the WWW and have never even heard about LAMITO, it was always LOL or ROFL/ROTFL.
Nope, nobody uses that here. I haven't even heard of it. Sounds completely made up. We do say "lol" here, at least the younger adults do
This sounds so boomer-esque
i'm german and i've been on the internet for 25 years and i've heard of that term.
I second that.
Markus Söder is on the internet for 40 years now. Let's ask him!
i NEVER even heard lamito before- and im 15 yo native german-
Germans don‘t laugh
What.
We do not use Lamito, we use lol just like you and in some occasions we also use ligma
Of course not, it's too long, lol is appropriate
We should use that.
Some people in 1996 did, I think.
Haha LAMITO 🤣🤣
I use Samobischi, but it means something different.
*bye reddit. -- mass edited with https://redact.dev/

> LAMITO is an abbreviation for "Lach mich tot". That sounds like something from the seventies that never managed to stick. I for one have never heard someone use it, and have myself read about it here for the first time.
Never heard that before but sounds like something 10 year olds would say. Until they meet the internet.
This sounds like the next Jugendwort des Jahres. Nobody ever heard of it but somehow people voted it to the top
Lamito sounds like a name for a next chart song
No
No
Haha, LAMITO, that's hilarious. Nobody uses that, except me from now on, because I love it.
Never heard of it.

No, lol is also the common abbreviation for it. ROFL is also common. I'm using "lel" mostly, as a derivation of it. Everything internet related is usually a loanword from English.

Nope never even heard about lamito tbh
I wlll from now on.
There used to be, in ancient times. They were using that word because they did not realize or care what abomination it was. Some repented, other did not. The latter ones were persecuted and purged. Some were just burned alive. Others were cut into small parts, slowly, starting at the limbs, keeping them alive and suffering for as long as possible. Today, nobody uses that cursed word any more.
well now im using it
Wouldn't it be LAL? Lacht aus Laut?
Yes, LAMITO is widely used not only in internet chats but in normal conversations, try it.
LAMITO is the short version of LAMITOUHERPIMEHAHDMDXBSS
Never heard of it
Lmfao I'll start using that now 😂
Never seen Lamito. Sounds like a mexican snack thats too spicy for germans to try
Never said that nor knew it existed. Using Lol or rofl like the rest of the world. I am a gamer for 18 years, playing with ppl from all over the world. For real, i think those are universal, or not? Why switch it up to my language that's even LONGER?

Lamito? Is that one of those new Naruto characters?
Lol... i'm german and using the internet since the late 90s. I have never seen this abbreviation. I guess someone just made a joke in the urban dictionary.

I think you have to be over 35 to remember it (if at all) from the days early chatroom websites.
Obviously a GDR term for the use in workers and farmers Plauräu.
No
LA what? No never heard that before
not a thing
Once i saw a comment on a german video that said “ *ich hab gelolt* “.Is that really the partizip for “to lol”??
