Like for some reason, on board 8, I process ending a contradictory opinion with a period as dickish, but if you put an exclamation point for some reason that makes it nice.

Like, everyone here does it.

It's so odd.

I think that it's the same as adding "lol" at the end of a joke to let the other person know you're joking. The internet kinda lacks that whole nonverbal communication thing that we have in real life so we have to add those filler words just to make sure that we're being as clear as possible.

I understand why it's used, I just think an exclamation of all things is so odd.

As if shouting at people is the mature, nice way to get your opinion across.

Yep, I definitely do this.

I think it's because the idea of yelling through text is so absurd that it comes full circle.

Yeah, that's what I had figured. It's funny how so many of us just instinctively think of doing it, though.

I think it gives the sense of the poster "speaking" in a more upbeat and excited tone, which makes it feel more pleasant and jovial.
