If you do something 'for the lolz', it means you do it for fun.

And as Neil is demonstrating, it's often something a bit silly or crazy.

Now, lolz is a close relation of another slang term: LOL.
现在,“好玩”这个词和另外一个俚语表达有着密切的关系:大笑。
LOL stands for 'laughing out loud'.
“大笑”的意思就是“大声笑出来”。
We use it when texting or on social media after a joke or something funny.

For example, Neil, your hair looks amazing, LOL.

Why is that a joke?

Anyway, lolz can be used in the same way.
