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!

It's such an arbitrary relic. I don't know if people ever really believed saying something helped the soul or whatever, but it's so tedious. Or people get competitive and try to be that person, who's polite and then it sets the standard of good manners.
At least if you're gonna acknowledge I sneezed, could you give the person a tissue? At least then you'd be doing something.
And don't even get me started on the chud types who explicitly say 'god bless you' like every sneeze is a battlefield in the culture war
In a few months we're going to get into the Christmas Wars again.
