Imagine being so insecure in your sexuality that you're too scared to use proper grammar tools because of what other men might think of you. Soft!

Grown women still use periods.

Interjections (hey!)
Show excitement, (hey!)
Or emotion. (hey!)
They're generally set apart from a sentence
By an exclamation point
Or by a comma when the feeling's not as strong

Business texts? No.


I work with a bunch of younger people and every email, text and Teams message is loaded with !!!, GIF’s and fricking smiley faces. I loathe that shite. It’s work time. Tell me what you need to tell me and leave me alone so I can get the job done.

I was recently counseled for “not being nice.” I lead in every productivity metric but I am “not nice.” When I pointed out they were wasting time with all their extraneous bullshite comms I got blank stares.

Or excited (eek)
Or mad (rats)

You're gonna get shite on in this thread, but grown men overusing exclamation points is a giant pet peeve of mine.
