My dude, what are you putting in your iced tea

Wtf is in that tea‽
Tea contains oaxalates which are a main component of kidney stones. However, most studies indicate that you would have to drink a ridiculous amount of iced tea to cause stones to form. I think he probably just developed them through usual means, did a little internet research and convinced himself it's the tea.
And then continued drinking the tea that he thought was causing the kidney stones.
Nice interrobang bro
I'm starting to think it's part of a growing Lemmy dialect
I've been using it pretty consistently for several years now. I think something about Lemmy attracts the type of people that use interrobangs, rather than Lemmy creating a culture of interrobang use.
I've been trying to get the semicolon to take off; haven't had much luck though.
When I was a teenager I used it a lot; irritated the hell outta people for some reason lol
I had an eloquent friend who used them in college. The advice he got from TAs (many were from overseas) was to not use them.
I got that advice as well -- the explanation given to me was that it's almost always used incorrectly, so just be safe and don't. However, I like the way it makes writing more closely resemble natural speech; we usually talk in conjoined clauses rather than complete sentences.
What can I do?
Respect the people who clean up your solid waste in a urinal because you didn’t?
