The Internet: A place to Make Friends, Make Bad Decisions, and subsequently, Make Headlines:
MIAMI - A college student committed suicide by taking a drug overdose in front of a live webcam as some computer users egged him on, others tried to talk him out of it, and another messaged "OMG" in horror when it became clear it was no joke.
As police entered the room, the audience's reaction was filled with Internet shorthand: "OMG," one wrote, meaning "Oh, my God." Others, either not knowing what they were seeing, or not caring, wrote "lol," which means "laughing out loud," and "hahahah."

This fellow was really an hero.
Sometimes, the simplest Eulogy is the most fitting:
