LOL! Guess not! I see on that page there are interpreters and compilers etc. I seriously can imagine coding like that! I sometimes find it hard to read some of the LOLCode I have seen on the net....but, to those that can code like that....hats off to you!! Still fun finding them though!

LOL!!

Only part I dont get is this line:

VISIBLE "GTFO"

GTFO?

It's an acronym; stands for "Get the **** out".

The "VISIBLE" keyword simply writes it to stdout.

Interestingly enough, "GTFO" is also a LOLCODE keyword, used to break out of the innermost loop (in that way, it's functionally equivalent to the "break" statement in C/C++/Java/C#).
