oh thanks

what does "*** off" mean?

Tearsofjoy · Answer

"laughing my *** off" means to laugh very very hard.

Here "***" refers to the buttocks, in American slang. So the literal translation for this would be "laughing till my buttocks fell off". Of course that isn't true, and I think it might have come from the more widely accepted usage "laughing my head off", which means the same thing.

So, Titi Bo, next time you post a joke and someone says "LMAO", that means "It's very funny, and I'm laughing very hard".

Hope that helps!

I used to say "lmao" and similar myself, when playing online.
LMAO

Shorthand for Laugh My A** Off, LMAO is commonly used in chat rooms and text based communications. Another common alternative to LMAO is LMFAO and LMMFAO, which is short for Laugh My F**ing A* Off and Laughing My Mother F**ing A* Off.
