RACISM!!!

One of the biggest challenges on the internet when reading just words is getting the author's tone. In person it is obviously much easier to pick up whether the person is being sarcastic, funny, mean in tone etc.

In this case I was probably being a dick and mocking the poster with my question because he wrote 'what's called a southern strategy' as if political junkies (all of us who spend large amounts of time on this board) wouldn't know what the southern strategy is.

Moron!
 
Now, Cawacko, if you had to "guess" what would you think the "tone' of that post might be???

Probably a girl yelling at me after I said I wouldn't go out with her on a date? (ok, I'm know I'm dreaming someone would ask me out, pre-marriage obviously, but work with me here.)

Oh come on, you must have gotten pursued a lot, I've seen you without a shirt, and when I passed it around the reviews were all raves. SF is still fuming over it.
 
Picking up on tone is important when someone is subtle...it really becomes less important when someone is typing "FUCKING COWARD" and the like.

you are injecting your emotions when you read those words, you seem to fail to grasp the possibility that they are said in another tone. That is your problem.

Haha, thank you. Probably because I had no game.
 
Yeah, we all know SF only has one tone monotone,

Yawn

lol... I didn't say it was monotone, only that they like to assign the incorrect emotion, whether deliberately (in order to fuel their little 'u raging' banter) or accidentally (they be stoopit)
