Why do people say lol all the time? (Most of the time things arent even that funny).What if someone doesnt want to laugh out loud? What if they want to laugh inside? Im just saying...........
If you dont know what to expect, prepare for the worst.....

it has become a space filler. "lol" adds something to the conversation that, without such a word, would otherwise seem more empty. for me, it serves as a "stop," signifying that i have ended my sentence, for i break up sentences into many small IMs. it also adds to lighten moods; many times, the exclusion of a lol can be a deciding factor between bleak seriousness or light-hearted conversation.
to me, lol has evolved from "LAUGH OUT LOUD" to a space filler, a tone alterer, and a mood setter.
"LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL," however, is a completely different thing.

I lol'd at doodle's post.
For me, "lol" have not evolved at all. If you people spam "LOL" over and over again, I'd think you're strange. Want a laughing drop?
