WOODFORD COUNTY, KY (WAVE) – You have probably seen "LOL," the acronym for laugh out loud, but a drunk driver who typed it on her Facebook page isn't laughing anymore.

A Woodford County Judge warned Paula Asher about her Facebook postings after she drove drunk and ran into the side of another car.

After the crash, Asher posted the following sentence on her Facebook page, "My dumb--- got a DUI and hit a car LOL."

The posting disturbed the people in the car she hit and the judge so much Asher was ordered by the court to shut down her Facebook page.

Asher then ignored the judge's order to shutdown her Facebook page. Since she didn't shutdown the page she was sentenced to two days in jail on a contempt charge.

Asher said, "I didn't think LOL would put me in jail."

Asher now said she apologized to everyone, including the judge.
