Some Little questions.

Some times I read a sentence finished in sarcastic way with "lol" what is this expression? gosh I donot understand it.

"How come" is exactly the way of saying "why?" or "what for?"

If people are really too close can I say "they are sit cheek-by- jowl"

"sleek" is a common use word? Can I say this accent is really sleek? Can I say Sleek people or person? do you have a synonimous?

Can someone explain to me the expression: "Trickling through to street level" It doesn't make me sense!

This expression is kind of difficult: "that yields a fascinating glimpse":

What does this expression means " every now and again? "When can I properly use it

Thank you ever so much!!

LOL is one of many shorthand terms used first by chatters and now by those who text message or email a lot.
"How come?" is a poor way of saying "Why?"
"What for?" asks a slightly different question:

Can I borrow ten dollars?
Why? (or "How come") -- why do you need my money? (Maybe, because I'm hungry?)

Can I borrow ten dollars?
What for? -- What are you goin
