Did the other person know what it really meant, or did they take it as lots of love too?

It can mean lots of love depending on context... you just need to hope the other person knows that.

You're probably safer assuming that it means 'laugh out loud'

my dad for some reason assumes i know everyone on this forum personally, so he occasionally walks up behind me and asks "who is....?"

Yeah, though they get suspicious if they see people's avatars, BackCountrySnow's one was a tad of a problem.

My mum thinks because I do pd I know absolutely everything to do with sport, food, diseases, anything to do with that type of stuff.

'You would've learnt that in pd'

Re: Something that made you say "my parents are so naive"

In my Math question booklet, I crossed off the questions I could do so that I wouldn't have missed any questions and circled the ones I couldn't do and would like to come back to it later. The booklet had mostly crosses and a few circles. I showed my mum the booklet and I lied

Mum: What do the circles and crosses mean?
Me: The circled ones were the questions I could do and the crossed out ones were the ones I skipped
Mum: Oh dear.. you missed a lot of questions!
