"Me, writing an email:

I’m using an exclamation point so you know I’m friendly and excited! But now I’m using a period so that you know I’m not crazy. Here’s another sentence with a period as a buffer, proving my normalness. Thanks so much!"

    You think punctuation comes across as critical/blunt, so you just… don’t end sentences? I guess it doesn’t matter much for texts or social media or wherever, but that reasoning is just… wild.
