Staff Cringe React Deleted

[Tefka]

On one hand, I hate the internet types who read way too much into situations and never faced a day of antagonism, social wit, or developed a tougher skin towards dealing with disagreements. ie, “probably Homeschooled” syndrome, I call it.

On the other, the “probably homeschooled” crowd does occasionally have legitimate gripes because of another crowd. This crowd has gone by many names since my existence on this earth, but I usually called them “50% chance of becoming the next unabomber because Tef is dating my ex”.

As much as I do not enjoy caving to the homeschoolers, we can all agree the unabombers are the bigger problem by a long shot.

Or if you’re feeling lost right now in this announcement, it’s probably because I’m dating your ex.

And if I’m not dating your ex, Valiens is 100% dating your mom.

Love and peace,
-T

Today I learned Tef is dating my ex and Valiens is dating my mum. Classic case of the Mondays.

Valiens is dating my mum, though...

 

[Jem Fossk]

Polarization often feels avoidable here, huh?

Either way, thanks for the quick review and response Tefka

Stay warm out there fam.

I was homeschooled...for a while. Fight me.

I miss my cringe react already.

Given that I had just used it on a friend's post calling Brandyn annoying (valid accusation not withstanding), I did at first wonder if it was a petty personal attack, but believed better of said friend. Poor timing to cringe something just before it gets removed.

I have less tools in my toolbox now to prevent people from becoming addicted to lovey eye emotes. Slightly sad moment. But ultimately irrelevant to life.

“50% chance of becoming the next unabomber because Tef is dating my ex”.

Your posts should come with a warning label, because at this rate I'm going to need a new PC monitor from spitting my Mountain Dew out to keep from choking when the inevitable laughing fit starts.

So lost. Best of luck with my ex, Tef.

Thanks for removing this.

I think the topic has generated far more debate than necessary when it was just a sensible step to remove a react that had no real positive connotation for anyone.
