Or lack there of...

Dose the lack of tone to convey your meaning ever get you in trouble or at least misunderstood when communicating via text?

I find text easier than talking, but then I'm neurodivergent.

I find texting easier too, I have more time to process my thoughts into words.

But I do sometimes post something that's intended to be satire or lighthearted and then think yikes that may(has) gone down like a brick

I’d rather talk (in person) than text. Don’t call me 🤣

Oh for sure.

But for me, people tend to misunderstand me much more when they're standing in front of me. I don't speak body language and inference!

All the time. What I think are clear jokes get taken seriously. For future reference nothing I say on here is serious.

I prefer to talk.

Text can be taken in so many different ways and even if you know the way it should be taken you can twist it to cause an effect.

I like verbal, it has a tone

Too many clever wordsmiths in here and in general
