What's the most annoying response to a text, IM, or email?

k...

with no response at a close second. Just typing lol is really ****ing annoying though.

Yeah, "k" is annoying as hell too. But I just think typing "lol" after something awkward and without typing anything with substance afterwards is such a conversation cop-out.

No response when you've texted someone asking about plans or something is most annoying, thats when you think to send it over and over again, or end up checking your phone non stop which leaves you pretty unproductive. Any other time if someone texts me back 'ok', 'lol' or no reply at all it means the conversation is over, and I dont have to stretch out the conversation even further.

I couldn't decide between "k," "lol," and no response at all.

"k" bothers me because it usually means the person is dismissing you. It's good sometimes, though, like when you're just trying to have a really quick conversation such as making a meeting place clear or checking on the time of rugby practice or... whatever.
"lol" is bothersome because it ends the conversation right there, there's nothing you can say back to that unless you're trying really hard to keep the conversation going.
No response probably bothers me the most of the three because I think too much. There is so much that a lack of response could mean and I never want to overreact but I also don't want to look like an idiot if someone's disrespecting me and I don't notice.
Phew.

I really dont worry about any of it. If someone texts me" k" I take that as they are not interested or dont wish to talk about what was being said. Maybe its just the topic at hand and you just need to talk about something else...or just leave it at that. Annoyed by it?..no. If someone gives me a "lol" then either they might actually find the previous statment funny or they dont know what to say. People give fake laughs in real life all the time to comments that are of little meaning or weird. Doesnt always imply they are trying to end the convo...things of this nature are just to minute to waste time letting them really bother you. I try an not make something out of nothing if at all possible. I mean there are bigger things in life to get upset about than things of this nature. The fact that something like texting k or lol annoys people is actually funny in itself. I mean their are bigger things to worry or get upset about in life than this..like for instance...the rapture is about to happen in a couple of days people!!!.....
