I am more concerned about when my words are intended to hurt but don't.

Good suggestion but /s sarcasm and /j are all you need. The poster does a disservice to herself by getting carried away with too many.

I use emojis and ! when I indicate a tone. /nuff.

I'm imagining the most anal and insufferable person alive.

Fuck her.

Stuff can get misunderestimated online I seen it myself so the idea isnt entirely silly, but that list is WAY too damn long!

If you're too stupid to understand the intent of my words, then please...be hurt.

I thought this is why we have emojis.

R20 emojis are just for hand claps 👏👏👏 and letting people know you are SRS!

One of the replies: “Tone tags are incredibly helpful to both the neurodivergent community and those of us with social anxieties!”

Maybe just avoid social media entirely.

No, r23, they must be able to participate in everything non-crazies do, even if it means making it worse for everyone else! It's 5th grade public school all over again.

This is too much work. I’d rather just have everybody think I’m an asshole.

by Anonymousreply 26March 1, 2021 4:25 PM

Yeah, like I'm gonna remember all that, along with somebody's pronouns of he/they/fae that they insist must all be used alternately or I am LITERALLY KILLING TRANS PEOPLE.

And yes, the pronoun example is one that somebody I know actually insists upon. I have no idea why they still have any friends at all.
