CHIRAL: SIDE Y

>>Private chat: I am who i am.

True. And, it seems, not entirely provocative of a helpful response. cripesalmighty only sends two messages your way.

Nicopter: I am who I am.
cripesalmighty: Thanks! You just dropped being sweet and got vague all of a sudden which is neat!
cripesalmighty: Can you at least, um… if you are some weird ethereal being or a group of people or just somebody pretending to be Nic, can you at least give a real, actual name for yourself? Or like make one up on the spot for me, anything.

However, in traditional fashion, the main chat is blowing the hell up once again in like five minutes' time. These folks don't have much better to do than sit and chat, it seems.

YUPPERS: my morning WAKEUP routine has met an INTERRUPTION with all of this shenanigan
YUPPERS: question
YUPPERS: should shenanigan be APPROPRIATELY CAPITALIZED
YUPPERS: does it meet APPROPRIATE CAPITALIZATION STANDARDS
Crast Pactian: i’ve always thought of your capitalization as emphasis.
Crast Pactian: since that’s how you use it when you speak, i suppose.
YUPPERS: my manner of SPEAKING realms under the realm of SIMILAR
YUPPERS: but it is decidedly PURPOSEFUL in text
Crast Pactian: so not for emphasis?
YUPPERS: for HIGHLIGHT.
YUPPERS: YOU KNOW, LIKE A MARKER.
YUPPERS: (occasionally just for EMPHASIS yes)
EXA: zzz.
EXA: zzz… because… this is a boring Convo.
EXA: conversation.
EXA: self-centered… referential…
cripesalmighty: I swear I’ll break your easy-access needspensers if you don’t just condense your stuff into one singular line. It’ll happen for real!
Crast Pactian: cripes, no threats.
cripesalmighty: Sorry.
EXA: line breaks-- to designate a thought
EXA: independent thoughts
EXA: much more cozy than… a comma. or ellipses.
tiptopGipgop: Finally, more conversations about everyone’s unique imitations of the famous human concept of ‘typing quirks’. Finally.
tiptopGipgop: Nevermind just typing in an ordinary way that you feel like doing at any given time.
YUPPERS: typing is an EVERYDAY ACTIVITY
EXA: monotonous, contiguous, essential,
YUPPERS: which must be SPICED UP, so to speak, with LIMITATIONS, ENHANCEMENTS
YUPPERS: all manners of FLAVOR
EXA: zzz, …, ,,,.
Crast Pactian: it’s a fun activity once one gets around to doing it. i haven’t really found a need yet-- communication is satisfying in of itself.
YUPPERS: a few CAPITAL LETTERS
YUPPERS: some PUNCTUATION, or LACK THEREOF
YUPPERS: QUINTESSENTIALLY a tone that ALL HEAR YOU BY
Crast Pactian: it seems like an unnecessary waste of time to be worried about how certain words are typed, though like an accent in speech, i suppose it does lend some credence to one’s character…
YUPPERS: yes:
YUPPERS: a FOUNDATION by which ALL THOUGHT can be formed.
tiptopGipgop: I’m the person who picked this stupid username and even I think that it’s a little derivative to use typing quirks.
tiptopGipgop: When we got in here, I really wanted to be...
tiptopGipgop: You know, like, a name with twelve letters, two segments, T and G or A or C, that whole huge deal.
tiptopGipgop: But it is just a weak way to imitate one of the most surface-level, unimportant parts of their character. It honestly feels like by using a typing quirk or a name like mine, you’re forgetting the point in favor of a cheap callback to somebody cool.
tiptopGipgop: Like naming yourself after your hero, instead of being somebody you could admire.
tiptopGipgop: For me, that’s pretty literal, right?
YUPPERS: it’s for SPOKEN ACCENT, not your trivial IMITATION GAME.
tiptopGipgop: I would rather speak through the words I choose and the way I pick them than trying to convey my actual spoken accent than trying to pretend I’m something I’m not, by- say- interjecting random numbers into my text for truly no reason.

tiptopGipgop: Goddammit.
cripesamighty: Cripes almighty.
Crast Pactian: good morning, numbers!
Crast Pactian: please, please, please remember to put spaces between words today.
Crast Pactian: not that we’re not fully cognisant of what you say, but there has been a visitor.
