Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.

As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.

Thank you and happy chatting!

This isn't even an issue of hidden meaning, this is just English being a broken language lol. "Looks [like it's] good" gets shortened and accidentally acquires a different meaning.

Isn't the shortening of commonly used phrase just a natural language thing in general? Curse these language processing structures
