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!

I too am a dad and I respond like this to my offspring's text messages.

Those messages seem really hard to read, have you considered changing your font color?
Nah I just squint a lil

My neighbor does that when she texts me
As much as I can't stand that style of communication at least he's responding directly on the messages rather than physically sending a ๐ as a separate message. My dad is way too self-centered to communicate well but at least when he does he says things. Communicating with other boomer men makes me want to jump out a window.
I think some texting apps automatically turn a reply emoji into a reaction
My dad just fucking calls all the time like yeah dawg i texted you this question because i wanted to call. thanks

There are dads that can communicate otherwise? Listening and learning.
