I blame the em dash on Microsof. They automatically place them when you use 1 or 2 dashes.

I think it's a useful feature though ⸻ it makes an otherwise hard to type symbol easily accessible ⸻ rather than having to paste it

You're absolutely right! You said you wanted some attention given to your clitoris but I didn't know how to find it! Instead of asking for clarification, I just started confidently making shit up - that's on me.

You just stop making words for a few seconds.

That's entirely valid that you want to jork my peanor. Jorking my peenits is a spontaneous and brave way to win any evening encounter in the bedroom. Here's an easy three—step plan you can follow for wrangling my honey hose.
