That’s a grin though, it could mean being smug about what you just said.

[–] Astronauticaldb@lemmy.world 6 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I only ever use :D when I'm trying to be passive aggressive lol

[–] nichtburningturtle@feddit.org 6 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Interesting, because I use :) for that instead.

[–] Snowpix@lemmy.ca 5 points 2 weeks ago

My friend and I still use "xD", has this gone extremely out of fashion since I left middle school?

I once broke up with someone because he couldn't stop using ^^ after every sentence even in the middle of a serious discussion/argument

Peter I swear to God if this is how we meet again I'll lose it

[–] rbn@sopuli.xyz 15 points 2 weeks ago

-______- <---- almost every day.

I rarely use emojis

[–] skulblaka@sh.itjust.works 11 points 2 weeks ago

I picked up

. _.

From somewhere ages ago and I find myself doing it by reflex now, that's like the only one of those I ever really used but boy did it stick. The little bit of offset on the eyes in most fonts really gives it that je ne sais quoi that I crave.

Considering I've heard a few people say "xD", probably not. But hey, probably not that weird, there's UwU which is often read that way.

[–] Snowpix@lemmy.ca 12 points 2 weeks ago

I've used xD since I began using the internet as a kid and I have no plans of stopping.

[–] hex@programming.dev 11 points 2 weeks ago

i use it and wonder what people think when i do. they never seem to react negatively. maybe they're silently judging me

[–] urheber@discuss.tchncs.de 5 points 2 weeks ago

no, its still standard teen lango, at least here in Germany.

[–] Moc@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago

RuneScape got me out of the habit of doing this because it always forced the first letter to be a capital and the remaining to be lower-case.

Xd just doesn’t have the same ring to it

[–] ILikeBoobies@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 weeks ago

It’s the children who are wrong

What about people who reply 💯 to everything?

[–] nifty@lemmy.world 8 points 2 weeks ago
[–] fushuan@lemm.ee 5 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

better than the ones who SAY 100%.

[–] darvit@lemmy.darvit.nl 5 points 2 weeks ago

One hundo P bro

[–] KoboldCoterie@pawb.social 17 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

It's pretty neat to me that we've created this weird language around laugh onomatopoeia.

There's a very different tone and meaning between "ha", "hah", "haha", "hahah" and "hahaha", and I think most people can pick up on it with very little exposure without ever actually being told the difference, or even being able to explain the difference in words. I'd be willing to bet that 30 years ago, it would have been far less of a ubiquitous experience.

[–] Corkyskog@sh.itjust.works 9 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I am not sure what that hah and hahah variants mean to be honest, not sure if I ever saw them in real life.

Related question:

When you're using push-to-talk in a voice chat lobby, and someone tells a really funny joke. Do y'all mic up so the homie knows you think they're funny? Especially in lobbies where everyone is using PTT it can be really awkward when someone tells a joke, there's silence for a second or two (while everyone laughs off-mic) and then one person meekishly keys up with a "heheheh"

[–] lime@feddit.nu 9 points 2 weeks ago

i love it when everything goes quiet and after 20 seconds, someone just wheezes into the mic

[–] Zidane@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago

Me and the boys usually use voice activation but on the occasions when there's ptt in a game or we went ptt for whatever reason we always mic up for the giggling

Aw boo, the damn thing won’t let me load a video of me laughing to this joke, which would be kind of a mediocre chuckle where you could sense a subtle lack of sincerity.

Literally every single possibly reply is cringe, so I stopped trying

You can say something like nice or good one, or react to the message with an appropriate or intentionally silly emoji

[–] BlursedTarot@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago

I think a "People who use ____ as seen by people who use ____" grid meme would also be fun.
