Definitions
A Twitch BTTV emote of late Spanish comedian Juan Joya Borja ('El Risitas') in fits of laughter, used to react to something genuinely hilarious. 'Kek' is gamer-slang for 'lol' (originally from World of Warcraft cross-faction chat) and 'W' is the laughing-face suffix style used by emote artists. KEKW typically gets spammed in rows when a streamer fails spectacularly or chat lands a great joke. It is one of the most-used emotes on Twitch globally.

A BTTV emote, a brighter/zoomed variant of the classic LUL emote (a photo of late TotalBiscuit laughing). Used to mark genuine laughter at something funny on stream. Slightly less 'ironic' than KEKW and more wholesome-laughter coded; chatters often pair it with other emotes ('LULW Clap') to show appreciation for a streamer's bit. Pronounced 'lull' or just spelled out.
