Because of an ancient joke between my friends and I before the turn on the millennium, I habitually pronounce "ROFL" as "ROLF". For starters, Rolf is a first name name here (equivalent of Ralph, I think). Secondly, previously mentioned in-joke revolves around "Rolling on lawn, farting"

Mostly referring to how it's said in your head, though I have said it out loud in response to lame dad jokes.

I'd forgotten they ever existed, wow. A true flash in the pan.
My answer is "El'-em ay'-yo", all the letters distinct but the AO get a little blended together. Southern US vowel sounds.
