BluetreefrogSo apparently full stops in texts are 'passive agressive' now. What other unwritten rules for texting have changed over the last couple of decades?
anonymouse2I once confirmed an appointment over email by saying I’d ‘be there with bells on’, and the other person took offense. I guess they thought the use of the old-timey phrase was me being sarcastic. I thought it just showed my enthusiasm for the meeting. You just can never tell what will hit a person the wrong way.
If you learned that they took offense beforehand, show up with bear bells on your boots and tell them you’re going hiking afterward.
