| foolm0r0n 06/21/19 3:41:10 PM #73: | We have things in text that communicate subtextual context, like comma splices, ellipses, whitespace, capitalization, etc. So even beyond word choice there's a lot of ways to deliver tone. There's older people (and even some weird younger people) who insist on using the most perfect English prose and punctuation possible in online text, and they definitely lose a ton of that tonal communication. I guess they don't realize it cuz I can't imagine why you would intentionally want to communicate worse. But even with those people, it's not TOO hard to figure out tone. --- _foolmo_ 2 + 2 = 4 ...
