@mapologies Well, and here I am doing it all wrong 😹 I don't really care about it, but well.
I also do NOT like the 'curly quotes' because when I type code in lesson material this is a pain, and it breaks code in real life.
I for years have used "Hi!" for things I say, and 'Hey...' for things I think 😀 And always straight! And always at the top of the text 😀

@pascaline @mapologies Pasting code to a Google slide and it "helpfully" changing the neutral quotes into typographical quotes. 😬😬

The gall, affront, and horror!
I spit and fart in the general direction of Google!
