Did you notice that people, in general, are much more cynical, serious and literal minded on the internet than in real life?
We also seem to have much less patience for people.
Is it because we can’t read each other’s facial expressions, tonality, and context and we can’t catch if someone is serious or joking, or if someone is actually mean or genuinely asking/saying something accidentally “offensive”, without actually mean to offend?
