so i think that '/gen' means 'genuine' but my brain always defaults to reading it as 'general' or 'generally' and let me tell you! confusing in the brain until i remember.
#tbh anything beyond /j and /s and i get confused
#i am not up to date on the lingo there are too many words that start with letters
#i'm also not super clear on when /gen is used?
#like nobody seems to use it for EVERY time they mean what they say
#(that would be a lot!)
#so i assumed it was for when it seems like something could easily be construed as sarcastic but is not meant that way
#but then i see it attached to like. 'i think you're cool' or 'please tell us more' or 'how are you'
#but then maybe my awareness of things that could sound sarcastic is... off. that is possible.
#i rarely use the lil tone markers but that is bcos i Talk Too Much
#and will likely be elaborating on my intentions either in the post or in the tags
#i am. cursed by my need to overexplain things. a tone marker does not do ENOUGH. i must elaborate ALWAYS
#i WILL use another paragraph in parenthesis when other ppl would use a tone marker and i cannot help that
#(is that what they're called? tone markers? text markers? u kno what i mean.)
