I think most of these things ITT are fine when people here do them. the grossness really seems to be associated with the culture of reddit and worse sites.
Sesursoj can have a little repetitive language, as a treat
We can agree to disagree there, though I hope the "who hurt you" social well-poisoning isn't included in your "fine" list at the least.
I was speaking more to the comments, "You're Wrong?" is the only one of yours that has a good utility, redditors just overuse it with false confidence so it doesn't land.
but responding to something that's very verbosely incorrect with a terse correction like that can be very funny
It may just be a subjective thing for me; deliberately-used vocal fry tactics were exhaustively common throughout the years where I worked multiple minimum wage jobs to pay my way through college and having to hear that verbally intoned not-question question mark at the end of a hostile condescending statement for the hundredth time ("Check the backroom agaaaaain?" "Um... Managemeeeent?" "Customer is always riiiiiight?" "Your coworker would be cute if she kept her mouth shut and lost a few poooooounds?" and that last one still boils my blood remembering it).
Maybe, but I'm sure it was also fun/funny to the people I mentioned above that were tormenting kids that were just trying to survive, too.
Agreed. This thread has happened before and it's mostly arbitrary ways to say things that have nothing to do with Reddit.
Sesursoj is YOU
