It just occurred to me that my internet dialect in my IRL dialect are slightly different in a few ways. Curious to hear others dialectal differences and thoughts on the subject.

Please quote me where i specified a language.

Instead of making a shitty comment you could have said "While i speak different languages online and IRL, online i am argumentative, direct, and abrasive whereas when i'm speaking in-person i am often indirect and gentle because i prefer to avoid confrontation" which would have been more to the tune of discussing dialects in different situations.

But you do you homie
