None. Modern smartphones have put periods in automatically for so long that anyone bitching about it is just abusively making shit up.
An ellipsis, on the other hand, is passive aggressive. It ... always... implies that something has been omitted. Such as the profanity in the prior sentence.
do people actually see punctuations as passive aggressive if someone is worried about that they should stop texting people for a while. passive aggressive would be the tone of the text sent, making some kind of criticism, or belittling, ignorance.
I don't think the LOL thing had changed as 'lol' is passive aggressive, whereas 'LOL' means it's hella funny.
Another rule I think of is that ending sentences with periods is seen as passive aggressive, but I do that all the time (that rule's bull).
LOL means Lots Of Love
"She didn't make it. She's dead 😭"
"OMG LOL"
ROFL: Respecting Others' Feelings Lovingly
LMFAO: Loving Mindfully For All Others.
I forget what ROFLMAO is. That's probably why I don't get invited for the holidays anymore.
"LOL" is laughing out loud
"lol" is a person with their arms raised. 😌
Ackshully, "LOL" is finger guns.
Ah, the drowning lol meme..
I don't think all full stops in texts are passive-aggressive. I think it's fine if you use one and then do another sentence and just don't put one at the end, like this
I'm not a fan of this line of thinking. I think the above looks sloppy and unfinished, even though I used correct pronunciation throughout, and just left off the full-stop at the end. But, I think that's the format OP is getting at, and the full stop after "passive-aggressive" isn't what's passive-aggressive; it would be the one after "like this" if it were there.
I'm not great at texting. I used to not like texting Android users, not because of green bubbles (IMO green > blue, hue wise), but because I wasn't sure how the text would come across. Because SMS has a limit of 140 characters or something. iMessage doesn't. Neither does RCS, so, when texting an Android user, if it says RCS, I know it's gonna look right. I think most Android phones receive the text in multiple parts, but they know to put it together so it looks good for the user. As opposed to texting, say, flip phones, which don't do anything and it comes through in parts.
I suppose you can gather why I don't use Twitter (or its lookalikes).
I think it depends on the length of the message IMHO.
XD means you’re Polish.
Polska gurom
It's not passive aggressive, it's assertive aggressive.
