If it weren't for the initialisms created through text message communication, this sign would not have appeared on Fail Blog.
In the old days, the image would have been interpreted semiotically as a swimmer's head and two arms waving for help, not as a comment that suggests people should "laugh out loud" at the sight of a drowning person.
