My friend and I still use “xD”, has this gone extremely out of fashion since I left middle school?

I once broke up with someone because he couldn’t stop using ^^ after every sentence even in the middle of a serious discussion/argument

I picked up

From somewhere ages ago and I find myself doing it by reflex now, that’s like the only one of those I ever really used but boy did it stick. The little bit of offset on the eyes in most fonts really gives it that je ne sais quoi that I crave.

Considering I’ve heard a few people say “xD”, probably not. But hey, probably not that weird, there’s UwU which is often read that way.

I’ve used xD since I began using the internet as a kid and I have no plans of stopping.

i use it and wonder what people think when i do. they never seem to react negatively. maybe they’re silently judging me

RuneScape got me out of the habit of doing this because it always forced the first letter to be a capital and the remaining to be lower-case.

It’s pretty neat to me that we’ve created this weird language around laugh onomatopoeia.
There’s a very different tone and meaning between “ha”, “hah”, “haha”, “hahah” and “hahaha”, and I think most people can pick up on it with very little exposure without ever actually being told the difference, or even being able to explain the difference in words. I’d be willing to bet that 30 years ago, it would have been far less of a ubiquitous experience.

I am not sure what that hah and hahah variants mean to be honest, not sure if I ever saw them in real life.

“Hah” might be a questioning laugh
MonkderVierte@lemmy.ml 1 month ago
So what’s the difference?

Related question:
When you’re using push-to-talk in a voice chat lobby, and someone tells a really funny joke. Do y’all mic up so the homie knows you think they’re funny? Especially in lobbies where everyone is using PTT it can be really awkward when someone tells a joke, there’s silence for a second or two (while everyone laughs off-mic) and then one person meekishly keys up with a “heheheh”

i love it when everything goes quiet and after 20 seconds, someone just wheezes into the mic
Zidane@lemmy.world 1 month ago
Me and the boys usually use voice activation but on the occasions when there’s ptt in a game or we went ptt for whatever reason we always mic up for the giggling

As a half-hermit and half-misanthrope, I luckily don’t have that dilemma.
tanisnikana@lemmy.world 1 month ago
Aw boo, the damn thing won’t let me load a video of me laughing to this joke, which would be kind of a mediocre chuckle where you could sense a subtle lack of sincerity.

You can say something like nice or good one, or react to the message with an appropriate or intentionally silly emoji
