What Does PMSL Mean?
PMSL (P*ssing Myself Laughing) denotes laughter so extreme that a loss of bladder control has resulted. However, PMSL should not be taken literally. In reality, it just means that the person is laughing harder than LOL (Laughing Out Loud) or even ROFL (Rolling On Floor Laughing).Of note, PMSL does not mean "P*ssing My Sides Laughing." This is a mixed metaphor from "splitting my sides laughing." (Another example of a mixed metaphor would be "It's as easy as falling off a piece of cake.")
PMSL is one of several terms that have emerged to describe different levels of laughter. For example:
- LOL (Actually Laughing Out Loud)
- LOL (Big Laugh Out Loud)
- DOFL (Dying On Floor Laughing)
- FOCL (Falling Off Chair Laughing)
