IT’S LITERALLY HAPPENING LMAOOOOO

[capacity2]

They’re on Reddit saying texting “hi” is low iq and gives people the ick and that’s why they got ghosted. They don’t let u say hi no more….. we’re in a loneliness epidemic bc everybody is a weirdo about every little thing im cracking up

[la-vie-en-lys]

If you say "hi" and that's it you sound like you don't give a shit. Why would I want to talk to someone who won't even introduce themselves properly? Make an effort or suffer your loneliness epidemic.

[capacity2]

You people are crazy . You’re just crazy. This isn’t a normal world anymore

[auttumnleafs]

It's poor netiquette. If someone sent you a letter in the mailbox that just said "hi" would that not drive you insane?

[capacity2]

I would send hello ^.^ back ….. and feel warm inside

[haleyhalcyon]

I would tear it into pieces with my hands.

Who the fuck are you?

Fuck you for the anxiety you gave me from getting a letter from a name and address I don’t recognize.

Fuck you for the time you made me waste having to open that letter.

Fuck you for the complete bullshit feeling of finding out that you literally just wrote “hi” and expected that to communicate anything or resolve anything.

I don’t know your stupid douchebag ass, and I don’t want to. Fuck all the way off.

I’m here all pissed off just from imagining that hypothetical. It’s nothing short of disgusting that SOME shitheads think that this is acceptable behavior.

[capacity2]

You need to be euthanized

Did y'all like, know, that it's incredibly weird to start up a novel right at answering the phone? It's a good way to get accidentally flagged as a telemarketer or something.

You say hi. You start with hi in a conversation. DMs and similar are conversation areas. This isn't even about emails and letters.

People are out here ready to tear apart some stranger in the street for saying hi to you and y'all wonder why you're alone 😭

[haleyhalcyon]

Stepping up to a stranger on the street, yelling “hi” at them, then standing there in silence staring at them makes you a creep.

no hello

please don't say just hello in chat

Web chats are asynchronous. By the time the other person even sees your meaningless “hi”, you may be AFK or asleep.

You wouldn’t just call someone, say “HI”, then sit in silence and make the other person ask you who you are. No, you say “This is [name], calling you about [topic].” within the first few seconds.

You wouldn’t just mail someone a letter in an envelope, just to write “hi”, and make the other person send you a reply to ask you who you are. No, you put your whole message right there in that letter.

Even in real life, you wouldn’t step up to a stranger and blurt out “HI”, then stand there grinning like a creep and staring right into their eyes to pressure the other person to ask you who you are. No, you start the conversation up with an ice-breaker, like a compliment, the question you actually want to ask, or just a rhetorical small-talk question.

This isn’t demanding you to “start a novel”. This is telling you to actually start a conversation like a normal fucking human being can. This is basic manners.

You people are terminally self-centered and have no respect for the time, social battery, and boundaries of others.

P.S.: On a similar note to “No hello”, here’s “Don’t ask to ask”:

Don't ask to ask, just ask

[sinni-ok-sessi]

I do think the ability to emoji-react is a net win for human communication. not only does it give you an outlet for 'I see and acknowledge this but don't have a verbal response' but it also adds a pleasing alethiometer element to things

my coworker announces that he's off to the dentist. someone reacts with a tooth emoji. is this a statement of dentist solidarity? a wish for my coworker to return with more (or fewer?) teeth than he set out with? simple word association? who can say

[softness-and-shattering]

Friend of mine calls it active listening. Ah yes we are speaking of tooths. I understand and respond. Here it a tooth image. I have heard you.

people should be allowed to have low ambition, and also be able to feed a family on the salary of a cashier at a convenience store.

[aetherograph]

And! We need cashiers. And convenience stores. And I think it's kind of broken that society says people who want to do stuff like that have "low" ambition (not you OP, I get you're using it illustratively because that's what society labels said jobs) and don't deserve to live at the same standard as people with "high" ambitions.

If we need someone to do a job, that job is a role in the community and deserves not just a salary but cultural respect for the role.

"high" ambition jobs are all jobs that involve domineering and controlling others. "low" ambition jobs are all jobs that involve service to others. Have you noticed? Because I have noticed.

But serving others is actually more needed than controlling them.

Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up.

unfortunate truth of reality is that oftentimes 15 year olds will say/do/believe some stupid bullshit because they are 15 but telling them that they believe that because they are 15 is probably the most counterproductive thing in the entire universe

[sawed-on-shotgun]

i remember being 15 and wanting literally nothing more than to be taken seriously and listened to and every thought and feeling i had was dismissed because i was a hormonal teenager. i was well aware at that point that a lot of the things i felt were probably because i was a kid, but that didnt make any of it less real, and being dismissed because of my age 1. did not help 2. did not make me feel better 3. made me angry at and untrustworthy of adults because they refused to listen to me. teenagers are people. kids are people. one of the only major things separating them from adults are experience and wisdom. they have like. you know. interiority

[sawed-on-shotgun]

like in YOUR mind you may think youre being helpful by going 'well you're a kid, its not really a big deal, youre okay, youll get over it' but that does not register as "helpful affirmation that everything will turn out fine and the only reason im upset is because of something out of my control so its better to just try and come to terms with it" it registers as 'adult dismissing my real tangible problems and sadness and anger because of my age and inadvertently calling me stupid'

[is-this-fascism]

its funny to me how warmups for instruments generally sound nice and pretty. like just basic scales or chords. the exercises i do on my guitar could be mistaken for actual music at times.

and then vocal warmups are shit like. bark like a seal. grunt like a thwomp from mario 64. now sing the melody but instead of the lyrics youre saying 'moo moo mee mee mah mah' even the scales you gotta moo mee mah through that shit and its just so goofy every time. and this is why im not a singer

[is-this-fascism]

see this is exactly what i mean. i thought someone was having a mental break of some kind in my notes until i remembered what i had posted last night
