The people who do this have no idea how AI works. They'll still lecture you on it though.
Þhat's just, like, your opinion, man
I thought you didn't need the h with the thorn.
The h is silent
I think this weird trend is dumb. But I also think this meme is mean spirited and is also dumb.
I'll take a (harmlessly) weird trend over a mean meme every time - and don't make me personally invoke yonder glyph to prove it! I'll do it!!
Just bring back runes and get rid of those foreign characters.
Yeah, I'll admit, as soon as I see it I stop reading.
Ah yes, time to leave my own innocent lil comment. Have a nice day! Þ Not! Muahahaha
Thanks for the positive response!
Shakespeare didn’t die for ‘thou be like fr fr. 😄
no cap
(is that the right response? i was born in the 80s)
quite literally, no cap
You did well. XD
I'm autistic and out of touch. How do you pronounce this symbol? What even is it? When did this start? Hello fellow kids. Old man weather bones here bringing you some Werther's Originals.
It's "TH" like in "the".
Old english used it because many words were from norse and vikings brought runes as an alphabet with them.
It neither survived that time english decided that french is cool, nor that time press was invented only for latin alphabet.
You can notice remnants of history of this letter by noticing how many english words contain "th" in them.
That is both fascinating to me in a historical context, and infuriates me in a temporal context.
"Let the past die. Kill it, if you have to."
Also when removing it they replace it with Y, which is whu we have ye such and such, because it used to be the such and such.
thorn, pronounced th. it used to be a letter of the alphabet before it got removed
Lol I'm old enough I used that character rather than a P for tongue sticking out emoticon (some alt + 4? numbers on an America keyboard unsure if same on others),but learned it's intended sound years later.
I always thought it was a cool character for th sound, but went out of style many moons ago. Thorn is the name I believe.
Thorn sounds very fitting!
Whenever I see the thorn, my mind goes, "pb", and it screws me up. XD
Mis-lead-ing!
My mind pronounces it sort of like blowing a raspberry, which makes reading it sound like someone who has a horrible lisp.
XD yeah it's quite comical.
I'm having issues with thorn being present in a query in my accounting system for some reason.
It adds to my hate...
I add [object Object] in some of the fields when submitting a form, I know it's really going to fuck with someone
