Wildly tapping our thumbs on a piece of glass is not how humans express emotion. Since it’s literally impossible to truly convey emotions in characters anyhow, I’m just advocating for attempting to be expressive in a way that more people can understand. Vs confusing your audience because you didn’t consider them and then judging them for it.
Body language has evolved for millions of years. Undoubtedly from before we were human. Texting has existed for what, 25?
And I think the existence of this post in the first place tells us it very often doesn’t work.
I say let’s embrace trying to be clear by using more words, not less. Within reason anyhow.
I mean, that’s exactly my point. Unless you can know people are paying full attention, didn’t make a mistake, and also know/subscribe to the exact same rules, then the potential for misunderstanding is increased not decreased.
It’s interesting to me that people put so much effort into creating rules around what subtle punctuation differences mean when there’s a billion reasons not to assume we know what any of it means. Typos, being in a hurry, being a different person with different opinions… Basically texting is like 50% at best for communicating emotions even if we don’t make these random assumptions.


Lol I have actually do have some unlisted videos, I just forgot what that meant until I was reminded


Yeah. I saw that after I wrote my comment.


See they’re running out of disk space though. Preserving history is so much less important than 58 minute video essays about [insert any banal topic].


Xenophobic is a bit much. These names were mostly probably formed out of ignorance, and once a name is established it’s hard to change.


Just so you can see what I saw:



Very weird. For some reason Boost displays those like the strings I wrote. Looking at this in the web client now, I see ~. Which btw I’m familiar with :) Thanks for the response!


What an absurd and incorrect analogy.


Okay what is this <sub> convention everyone is using and why is it sometimes </sub> ?


You never said what you were comparing against. I think downtown NYC is extremely crowded and it’s a head scratcher where you got otherwise from.
A person going through the trouble of making a comic really ought to know better than to write “wan’t”.
In any case, it was meant to look like they didn’t care if some random strangers saw their junk. I actually don’t see the humor there. Bizarre isn’t always bad, but here I think it is bizarre in a bad way. Not really the biggest deal though, just a desperate and gross Internet post imo


So just a few more years to take Kiev? These tactics are brilliant, you’re right.
Doesn’t make it any less bizarre
Not it isn’t. 80% =/= 35%
