    It doesn’t make you smarter though. It just makes you able to read this one person’s post with less headache.

    If you’re in love with them, you probably should, otherwise meh

      Don’t you know about the cognitive benefits of learning more language?

      Sure, this won’t improve your brain as much as learning a whole new language like Yolngu, but it’ll improve your mental fluidity a little bit. It’s a bite sized language lesson.

        But it’s not a lesson if it doesn’t explain itself. It’s just turns their comment into a puzzle that they know most people won’t know how to read.

        It’s gate keeping in the same way that intentionally using technical jargon when common parlance would suffice. It’s a bit insufferable.

        Ugh now you just made them sound like those incels who think correcting someone’s language is flirting, that it makes them appear smart and that that’s attractive in any way
