How do I express the view that I find something funny on an imageboard without making it sound sarcastic or looking like a faggot by typing out "hahahahaha"? I could use a reaction image and ">mfw" but surely there must be a better way.

[Anonymous No.]

You could say "that was funny".

[Moe !TRONurrVj. No.]

She's so cute!

[Anonymous No.]

You're not allowed to like anything you stupid faggot, where do you think you are?

[Anonymous No.]

You can get away with anything as long as you're not outright obnoxious, nor do you try to qualify yourself by being ironic or adding a disclaimer about how you hate yourself for laughing or whatever.

I'd go with "I lol'd", even on 4chan. But don't post JUST "I lol'd" because that's a stupid, contentless post nobody cares about.

[White Ren !YLuFFdRcFQ No.]

is this nigga serious?
god damn

>a reaction image and ">mfw"

[dntf**kwitmeormyfriends-chan !avY8p6wIiQ No.]

Please don't be one of those faggots that says "my sides". Jesus fucking christ, that's gotta be one of the most annoying chan-tolerated sentences I've read. Just say "that made me laugh" or something along those lines.

That's a tricky question, OP. Every image board has it's own little subculture of nonsense that it uses to condense common experiences and communicate with itself when tourists arrive to litter and not contribute. To know what nonsense is currently attached to what level of irony, you have to watch how other people use it for a while, and infer it from context. You may also have to use google and the archive sometimes. In /jp/'s case, any use of greentext is taboo, so >mfw is inappropriate.
When posting your own material, one thing that helps to form a suitable reply is the implied purpose of all image boards, entertainment. The only reason you SHOULD be posting something to begin with is if it is entertaining and on-topic, e.g. funny, hawt, horrifying or stimulating. When reacting to something else, the most universal approach is to make a wise-crack. Another common one is an entertaining image in some way related to the material you're reacting to. It's always helpful to shoop something, even if you suck at it. Shoops are like fiber on an image board. If you absolutely can't think of anything witty or informative to say, or any such image to post, then why are you posting at all? Wait and see how other people react, and maybe you'll think of something, or you'll think of a good reply to their reactions, and start a dialogue of discussion, silly shit, shooping or all three.

TL;DR, lurk moar.

mfw is acceptable ironically

[Anonymous No.]

It's accepted if it's used ironically but UN-ironically.

[Anonymous No.]

>>8764637
You jackasses who shitpost "ironically" should stop it. The irony is not entertaining, and thus the posts are genuine shit.

[Anonymous No.]

>>8764688
It's unironically entertaining

Perhaps in the same way that breaking stuff is to the vandals, but it's bad for the board.

[Anonymous No.]

>>8764696
It's good for the people on the board. Everyone likes to laugh. :)
