“Aesthetic” becoming a stand-alone adjective which refers to something possessing qualities of an (unspecified) aesthetic. Example: “that poster is so aesthetic” People saying aesthetic with a hard T sound for the th. “rear end-tet-ick” Hatsune Mike fucked around with this message at 03:18 on Jun 18, 2022 |

Slight head tilt to the side when actually listening to what someone is saying and thinking about it. Or just considering a decision or concept by yourself if you have two sided internal monologue. Dogs do it to. Theory is that it's just from looking at things at slightly different angles gives us a better understanding of their like spatial dimensions of it and poo poo, and that kind of carries over into "you've got my attention and I'm analyzing right now" for whatever reason. Brains are weird.

People on the internet overuse "said" (as opposed to a simple article) and "proceeded to" in a very specific but indefinable way that drives me crazy. It ALWAYS conveys some kind of condescension, especially the "proceeded to." As in, "I told this Karen the sandwich cost $5.00. She proceeded to throw said sandwich on the floor while shrieking like a banshee." Please tell me I'm not alone in noticing this.

It ALWAYS conveys some kind of condescension, especially the "proceeded to." As in, yeah it's pretty common. if people are being serious, it's police talk, trying to get legitimacy in a conversation by using authority words, makes them sounds kind of stupid. the other way people use it is as a joke like in your sentence, because what they're saying is ridiculous/mundane, but it's a tired joke.

The only thing anyone ever "forks over" is cash. I also wish people would never refer to a million dollars as "a cool million". Why is that necessary? Who made that decision?

But he talked about Chris Farley in Denver, or similar with the altitude, and Farley just did cartwheels down the road. is what your post reminded me of.

they're just mannerisms. not all of them are bad just because they're common enough to notice. the head tilt thing is just body language. plus if dogs do it then it can't be fake.

A lot of mannerisms are learned. I stare off in the distance and bare my teeth like my Mum does when I'm thinking. I have several laughs that I can identify as other people's laughs that I decided to permanently mimic. People are their parents and friends and teachers and partners. You people that bitch about pronunciation probably chew with your mouths open.

I don't know if anyone finds it annoying when people go "hmmm" or make another sound when they're thinking. I don't. What I do find annoying is one guy I know who doesn't make any sound when he's thinking. And he's also hard of hearing, which makes it even worse because it can be genuinely difficult to tell if he didn't hear something you said or is just thinking about it

But he's still confused by it You could call him WilliS and when he asks what's up with that you can say I just thought it would be a cool nickname, because you are cool like Bruce Willis.

I'm making it sound like he's deaf but once he's talking to you he's totally focused I don't now how to explain it. His brain or ear functions or whatever just don't pick up peripheral sounds like most other humans do Like trying to get his attention is difficult but talking to him is normal
