i love how everyone on this website interacts with each other in ways that are so socially impermissible irl. how did we get here
like i know none of us call people we barely know “bestie” out loud. i know none of us say “i am kissing you on the mouth” in response to every mild compliment. but god i wish we did
(recent) tumblr exclusive linguistic phenomena:
- bestie (said to someone you’ve never spoken to directly)
- so false worstie
- we are holding hands
- i am kissing you on the mouth
- you’re going in the soup
- variations on “your dad looks gnc af” “YOURE INSANE”
- mutuals (technically this exists on other social media but not in spirit)
- [gunshots] (people say this on twitter but they say it wrong)
- using periods incorrectly to. fine tune the cadence of a line
- my beloved/my beloathed
- hyperspecific day of the week holidays e.g. flat fuck friday
- variations on gaslight gatekeep girlboss
- and, of course, prev tags
outdoor cat owners be like it’s cruel to deny mittens the life experience of being run over by a semi truck and then picked apart by coyotes. he wants to be free he likes it
changing my statement after reading the notes. outdoor cat owners be like i actually live in an area where there are no cars or wildlife ever at all and if i dont let my mittens outside he will slit his furry little wrists out of sadness
