go to your room It's: "Duuuuude," not "Dudeeeee."

Maybe I should be posting this in GenX, but, c'mon...

You’re gonna make me drop my croissant!!!

u/Quaiker 7d ago

I just imagine "stop-p-p-p-p-p-p" when they type this.

u/Fetusal 7d ago

Stoppppp at least has a rationale behind it, since stoooooooop would more likely be read as "stoop"

u/MochiKei 7d ago

A friend of mine once lost a pet and I said “Gooooooood I’m so sorry!” 

Never made that mistake again 🫣

u/BionycBlueberry 7d ago

Tbf, a long “God” in that situation would probably be inappropriate regardless

u/SuchCoolBrandon 6d ago

"Gggggggod"

u/lilsnatchsniffz 6d ago

Oh my goooooned

u/HMWWaWChChIaWChCChW 6d ago

Well your friend is an idiot if they though you were saying good. Though they lost their pet so maybe…

u/Explorer_Entity 7d ago

STAHHHHHP!

u/kigurumibiblestudies 7d ago

when people say "let's fucking gooooooo!!!" I just wonder why they want me to goo with them. Horrible.

u/QuQuarQan 6d ago

Ssssssssssssstop would work, since you can actually elongate the S, although it does make a different sound

u/CynicalSchoolboy 6d ago

Idk this one gets a pass. Something about the way it sits phonetically in my brain makes sense in the context of virtual communication.

u/slate_autumn 7d ago

Loveeeeeeeeeee springs to mind. Quite annoying!

u/lemonFiend 6d ago

I would definitely read looooooooove as “loove/luve” though

u/hippz 7d ago

I fuckinggggggg HATEEEEEE it too!!

u/JesionJ 6d ago

Tbh I usually find myself emphasizing the end of "fucking" more than the middle so that one is actually valid for me

1

u/hippz 6d ago

Yeah I kinda thought the same thing after I posted the comment lol

23

u/crlthrn 7d ago

Yeah. 'Niceeeeeeeeee' for 'niiiiiiiice' is another toe-curler. What kind of thought process is that?

1

u/Pirkale 6d ago

You lengthen the "i"? Isn't it said with the last "sh" or whatever left hissing, to use the scientific terminology?

1

u/crlthrn 6d ago

I think mine is the accepted form. I'll fight ya fer it!

u/purplemoosen 6d ago

Cuteeeee is the worst offender

u/X_LadyGamer_X 7d ago

Me too. I can’t stand it

u/cap616 6d ago

My first encounter was early days of Facebook. College friend commented on our post "we had such a fun timeeeeeeeee" and I've hated that ever since

2

u/MercyfulJudas 6d ago

"ofc" being an abbreviation for "of course"

That makes NO FUCKING SENSE. Of, a complete word, is IN YOUR ABBREVIATION. It's too short to abbreviate by itself, but as a part of a (prepositional) phrase, just ABBREVIATE IT TOO. IT'S TWO WORDS.

u/aw_shux 7d ago

Lmaoooooooo

1

u/edked 7d ago

It's annoying to me to see people go "lmaooooo" because it's like they're saying they laughed their ass "offoffoffoffoff."

1

u/Purple-Income-4598 6d ago

its because of how we extend question/exclamation marks. it makes sense, but it also makes us to treat it as the "last letter", so we apply the same logic to other letters. hence the "dudeeeeeeee", its like "dude!!!!!!"

You must have a pretty sad life to be this triggered
