A lot of people pronounce it as a word now, rather than "L-O-L" (leastwise in my generation), and I found it odd that people seem to have chosen "lawl" as the way to say it. I read it as a word because it's evolved beyond the meaning of "Laugh Out Loud" and doesn't have periods. I tend to lean away from pronouncing whatever-the-word-is-for-those-things-that-aren't-acronyms-but-are-similar-because-they-only-use-the-first-letter-of-each-word as words.
