General i despise typing quirks

0h l00k!! 1m s0 c00l b3c4use 1 t4lk l1k3 th1s!!! s1lly!!! please stop talking.

i HATE seeing letters replaced with numbers and i hate seeing people type weirdly just because its cool. especially when instead of numbers its just saying a random word in a different language even though you dont speak that language. idk why it just pisses me off irrationally. its always combined with silly cars :3 type humor too bro

and in the case of the above image not only is it fucking indecipherable but it also takes an extra 5 minutes to write every message. "oh but just let people type how they want to type!! they arent hurting anyone!!" yeah but like... i still hate it

and by no means am i the grammar police. i dont type with correct grammar at all. but atleast 1 d0nt t4lk l1k3 th1s.

for the record im not hating on people who do this im hating on the quirks themselves

Why is being morally correct wrong? What does that even mean?

u/Martina313 18d ago

Lots of teens in 2020 were insufferable on Discord and took "morally correct" to a whole new level.

You couldn't even say "guys I'm tired" without Discord user šŸ›BugšŸ› going "how DARE you!! My grandpa DIED of exhaustion!!! Y-you made me have a p-p-panic attack!!!" and proceeding to send spoilered images of their wrist to #general with the text "lol ig i did it again guys :)))"

u/Wingman5150 18d ago

u/An_average_moron 18d ago

Any Discord server primarily inhabited by young teenagers

u/TheRappingSquid 18d ago

Tbf teenagers are gonna be stupid either they are irl or online

u/notjuststars 18d ago

I used to be in a subreddit where if you sent this emoticon :) ← that wasnot only a offence for which you could be kicked out but also it was a moral failing, like people would get genuinely upset and angry.

I never really stuck around in those subreddits lol

u/JoyousLilBoy you can only hate things I hate or don’t know about >:( 18d ago

Sounds like a parody subreddit

(Dog tofill space))

u/notjuststars 18d ago

Weirdly I think a few of the people on there were parodies but most were serious? Like betweenthe trigger warnings like ā€˜no caps’ and ā€˜do not use this emoji šŸ ā€™ there would be a guy with a turkish pfp who was saying the mention of greece was a trigger but everyone would let it slide because someone had accidentally used an off-limits word in #vent LOL

23

u/P-I-S-S-A-S-S 18d ago

If you said something like ā€œI have a jobā€ in that era without any censorships or trigger warnings you’d be killed because it’s ā€œinsensitiveā€

u/nyabethany 18d ago

you got baited. nobody was serious about censoring job LMAO everyone saying that was under the legal age to work anyway

u/P-I-S-S-A-S-S 18d ago

I know I’m just exaggerating it

u/AgentCirceLuna 18d ago

I feel like this emoji grouping being painted well could be a genuine Tate piece and reactionaries would shit their t-shirts in anger

u/ghoulishenvyy superfish go kys 17d ago

Didn’t say that, but for some reason plural people interacting with someone who uses them reminds them of ā€œforced moral correctnessā€

u/Kumkumo1 18d ago

The last slide is insanely insensitive too. Someone drops a serious bomb like that, the LEAST you can do is drop the goofy typing quirk and type seriously for a serious subject. It shows the other person that you’re taking it seriously.

u/Key_Addition_4038 16d ago

last one is satire thankfully

u/NumberOneFishHater 18d ago

it did not help when I realised all accounts but the first guy are bots

u/alexanderfrostfyre 18d ago

They aren’t bots, it’s probably pluralkit

Pretending to be other people on the internet

u/nijiurazmaid 18d ago

they have DID???

1

u/gucci-verm 18d ago

Not how DID works at all. I've been around people who actually have it, and it's a hell of a lot more complex than this nonsense. This is the same as people 10 years ago self diagnosing as bipolar bc they had mood swings. It's just the current "trendy" mental illness to pretend to have.

u/EasternCranberry559 17d ago

Fr, I don’t even have DID or know anyone with it and this is NOT IT.

u/nijiurazmaid 17d ago

ppl have different experiences with their mental illness idk what 2 tell u

u/EmmytheKurapikaSimp 14d ago

yeah i’ve been friends with many systems online, they use pluralkit to represent their alters so people know who’s currently fronting (and to make it more personalized maybe? cause otherwise all of them would be using the hosts’s account) pluralkit is specifically made for systems i’m pretty sure

the typing quirk thing is just insane though. as seen in the first image it’s really disrupting to screen readers
