Showing empathy is a valuable contribution.
daychilde@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
Not only that, but acknowledging you heard the one speaking in a quick, unobstrusive, uninterrupting way.
Phunter@lemmy.zip 2 weeks ago
Okay, but if someone does a little “gasp of surprise” at nearly every piece of information/news during a conversation, is it then socially allowed to throw them out of the nearest window?
angrystego@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
No.

“I acknowledge that I could interject my own thoughts here, but choose not to. Please continue with that topic, I am interested.”
Of course, doesn’t work as well in online forums.

Equally useless? More like twice as useless, you mean!

That’s easy. But you had to have been dropped on your head when you were a baby
Yosmonkol@piefed.social 3 weeks ago
You just reinvented the midwestern “uff da”. It sounds almost the same and can be used the same way.

In my college Sociology class, my professor ran us through a couple situations, then ran them back for us. Gender-wise, women tended to make small interjections, nod their heads, etc, as the conversation went among, to indicate that they were listening. Which apparently leads into two “classic” complaints between M/F partners.
Men tended to think that women were “always changing their minds”, because the men interpreted the women’s nods and interjections as agreement instead of “I’m listening to you”.
And women tended to think that men “weren’t listening to them” because men never provided this feedback.

The way yanks use bro or bruh is like glass in my ear. Its so boorish and stupid sounding.
Digestive_Biscuit@feddit.uk 2 weeks ago
Sadly my 8 year old son has brought the term bruh home from school. I ask him not to use it but he does anyway.
Reginald_T_Biter@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
The trick is to use it ALL. THE. TIME.
“Hey, bruh, good day at school? Brrrah brrrah 67 skibidi its your turn to clean the toilet.”

SurfinBird@lemmy.ca 3 weeks ago
Oof acknowledges someone’s feelings, and bruh expresses empathy. These sentiments are important and often overlooked. You don’t have to always launch into your own story. Simply acknowledging and empathizing is a powerful way to build social bonds.
Also brevity is the soul of wit, so oof and bruh might qualify as the greatest things anyone has ever said in history.

Yes, not every talk is a conversation! Maybe I just want to vent and not to hear.
CidVicious@piefed.zip 3 weeks ago
Does bruh express empathy? I’ve always read bruh as “bruh what are you doing” in a lot of contexts. But I can’t really say it’s something I use much.
Holytimes@sh.itjust.works 3 weeks ago
Context is key. It can express empathy, or disappointment, or awe.
Context is always key.
WhiteRabbit_33@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
I think it depends on how you pronounce it and context. I’m used to hearing a shorter bruh with a look attached to it as a question for “what are you doing?” vs a longer bruh like “bruuuuuuh” as empathizing like “that’s rough”.
Ilovethebomb@sh.itjust.works 3 weeks ago
In an in person conversation, that’s definitely true. Not so much online though.
