- hombre_fatal 7y agoThe usage doesn't seem very confusing to me. How are you going to understand and communicate with anyone if you don't know what they mean, refuse to understand, yet insist on something they didn't? And what's the upside to you beyond patting yourself on the back while missing the message? I can say that it certainly doesn't elevate the discourse on this forum.
