    “i have a weird question for u”

    “i am laughing my bum off. what is up!”

    like - really? why? is it sooooo funi that u lose ur bum or is it like - just a thing peeps say like “yooooo”, “…,.,.,.,…” and “skibidi”?

    its like peeps sweari g for no reaosn jus to make thwir statements feel like they got more weight - or politicians making topucs always a matter of national security and integrity or whatevr—

    not eeeeeeverythin is sooooo funi that u lose ur bum. im kinda happy i still have mine, as sitting is one of my fav pasttimes <3

    and then like -

    “ur bisexual, right?”

    “HAHA”

    like - i thought we were over the times were a sexuality is a funi… we prolli r but like - these messages jus feel soooo - stilted and false…

      It’s not to be taken literal here, it’s called semantic bleaching. Just saying ‘lmao’ (or ‘lol’) doesn’t mean it actually made them laugh, it’s just added to make the convo a little less serious :)

      most likely the entire conversation is staged, and they just inserted some random interjections to add “humor”. or they’re drunk. or maybe both?
