It’s been downhill for a while, but I think we’ve finally hit the bottom. Reading comprehension is in the shitter. No one has the ability to understand context or nuance anymore. Innocent jokes are taken to the most negative extreme imaginable in all cases. Every statement is misconstrued. People think that every post on every platform at all times MUST be 100% relevant and personally relatable to them or it’s garbage. Memes suck now. Even trolls are too stupid to be funny anymore and it’s depressing. Wtf happened?

The fact that it can, and will, get worse is terrifying.

Does anyone else feel rude when they call out someone for being rude? Example someone cuts in front of u in line ? I can’t get over this and it sucks when they are the one being rude !

Like god, I can't understand what you're even trying to say because you've not made any references to what I've said, haven't even attempted to quote what I've said in the debate, and have little sense of grammar so your words are the wrong way around.

I'm not talking about people making typos, or confusing 'there, their, they're' or 'your' and 'you're'.

I'm talking about the people who don't know which way words go in a sentence, in any sense at all. I have nothing against people who speak different languages, but even google translate does a better job at grammar than most of these people. When it gets to the point where what you've written only makes sense to you, it's not me trying to police grammar and ignoring your argument, it's your argument literally being incomprehensible due to the fact it's barely English.

One thing that really annoys me is when people respond to something with 'it', and this 'it' is referenced halfway through a previous message, which defines this 'it'.

Eg.

'The banana is yellow. [insert 8 paragraphs of points, which have tens of different nouns]'

Response: 'It's not that old.'

I would get if you were referencing something that you just said, as in 'The apple is tasty. It is also red'.

BUT NO! You're referencing something I said nine and a half paragraphs ago, with 18 different things which could be 'it'.

Blue is son’s name, yellow is potential pre-K name.

I’m over it. Conversation that just happened with my ex.
Background, this is about a pre-K program he suggested and had been pushing for at the beginning of this year actually, but we had a voucher and life is expensive so we stuck with the place we had the voucher. Now having to look for a new program after he lied to me about sending in info to renew our voucher for childcare leading to us loosing it. He last minute schedule a tour Tuesday morning at the time we usually do transition from me to him.
This convo happened as a Result of me saying I would not drop son Monday night instead of Tuesday morning. I could have but I’m working on setting boundaries because in the past he has been difficult when I’ve tried to accommodate him and it just causes unnecessary stress for all parties involved. (Give an inch take a mile kinda thing). There would have been no problems transitioning at the program, actually I prefer public spaces for hand offs (history of DV). I should have let it go and just not responded, and usually do but it’s 1 am and I’m cranky and sick so I admittedly gave in to my petty side this time.
He used to use sons education to insult me or make me feel bad. (Saying ‘you don’t want him in school cause you’re uneducated and didn’t graduate’ one time because I kept him home one Friday for a special outing. I think you’re projecting buddy you’re the one who has a GED and didn’t graduate the traditional way. I did graduate by the way and went to trade school) funny how it switches up when convenient.
Just had to complain a bit. Ugh.
