ALA is an acronym for "Actually Laughing Audibly." Many believe it carries the same meaning as "lol." Had ALA been used pre-2003, this would have been true. However, due to the commonplace over-usage of "lol" (use when there is no laughter out-loud), the need for an acronym referring to audible laughter has arisen. Hence, ALA. Use of ALA when one is not, in fact, actually laughing audibly, will result in a german shepherd attack.
