Yeah, even before the age of having a phone in your hand half the time, there's a ton of other stuff you need to touch, and I just don't like having groady hands in general.

I saw a bunch of restaurants around Korea that just had a toilet paper roll on the table for the diners to use instead of napkins.

Get some of these. They're like paper towels except they don't fall apart as soon as they get wet. They are more expensive than regular paper towels, but that's offset by the fact that you can use each piece for eight times as long.

When one poster can write halfway decent and a megathread gets taken over by the one rear end in a top hat's posts and then a legion of fans posting "oh wow yes this poster, tell me stories" Mainly thinking of good ol' humpermonkey/50 Foot Ant telling oh-so-cool stories about how they were totally in the army and banged so many chicks and beat up pussies, and ps there was a ghost, in the old ghost story threads, but it still kinda happens.

Dissociative Donut posted:You are seriously underestimating just how stupid and illiterate people are. I'm not saying everyone is intentionally writing it as a joke but no one loving legit thinks that the ck is elongated in the spoken version of fuccccckkkkkkkkkkkkkk. It's just a convention. It's funny and seems extra-exasperated. Recognizing this without actively thinking through it is a basic human process. Pet peeve: the idea that everyone in "the masses" or "people in general" is some drooling idiot. The vast majority of people are pretty loving normal and a bunch of them go home and bitch about how everyone they meet is a drooling illiterate buffoon just like you do. I guarantee everyone who thinks this way that they've done something loving stupid that, in context, made sense or was an honest mistake, but some stranger saw it and thought "oh wow, people today are just soooooo dumb!"

The opposite is also annoying, when people misspell non-words like 'ops' instead of 'oops', or 'hehehehe' instead of heehee or haha.

Speaking of "haha" though, nothing annoys me more than someone who has to end every single message with haha or lol. I asked you how your day is going, why the gently caress is that funny?

I vividly remember agonizing over this in elementary school because one of the picture books had someone saying "but mooooooooom!!" and I couldn't decide if that was better than "mommmmmmmm" because you don't emphasize the M but if you write "moooooom" it doesn't scan as an elongated "mom", but rather "moo" with an M at the end.

"Heh" and "meh" used to be a lot more common in my AIM days, and it was a surefire way to either piss me off or get someone pissed off at me. Never have two more dismissive collections of letters existed.

I think the elongating the wrong letter thing can work when deliberately used, like 8-Bit Theatre had a funny use of it where the whole joke was the Black Mage was go enraged he couldn't even finish saying "gently caress". It just came out as "fffffFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF" which in context really sold his incoherent fury.

I'm also one of those people who spell it woah because pronouncing it like whoa makes it sound like an exaggerated California surfer from the 80s. Also autocorrect on every phone I've ever used accepts both spellings
