goof around- acting silly or making jokes, usually being loud
laze around- "laze" comes from "lazy" it means to just sit down and relax, not doing any work
lounge around- it means the same as laze around

Obviously wrong
Explanation is not enough
Written in a language I can't understand
Answer is not related to the question
Other reason
- Korean
@mxdev dictionaries say that "lounge" means to LIE DOWN or SIT DOWN,
then, does "lounge around" gives you the image of someone lying/sitting down on a sofa or a chair which "laze around" doesn't necessarily give?

@overrunie I guess laze around has more of a lazy image, like laying across your couch at home in sweatpants and lounge around could also just be casually sitting, even in a public place. A lounge is a public place with couches for people to sit.
