The moment that linguistic quirk vanishes from AI generated text is the day it will become a lot harder to tell slop from real
This is basically LPT: people got pissed off, dump their anger in the form of "LPT: don't do this thing that angers me" and then flies off like their people need them
Wait sorry I'm actually confused, what exactly are you talking about?
Yep. Especially when they make the same dumb decisions over and over and over again. I had a buddy like that. Just made one idiotic decision after another in his marriage, his professional life, you name it. He'd ask my advice before doing stuff and I'd tell him, "Edward, I strongly advise you to not do that." And then he did it anyway with predictable results. So I'd have lunch with him once a month where he'd nonstop talk about all his drama, yet had no curiosity about my life. Never asked a question, even though I was facing some challenges at the time. Just stopped meeting him for lunch. Never missed those.
Dsngit Edward not this again
Me: Edward no stop. Edward: his head against a board and nail. Bleeds. Me: Edward, no, you're bleeding. Edward: Justifies for dear life* Me: Edward please, this is bad for you. Edward: Ugha-bugha, boss says I have to do it. Me: Edhwardh, noh!!! P.S. Peak Shyo-ga-nai w energy.
They'll never learn nor listen. At some point you just have to let them go.
Ugh, that sounds exhausting like a soap opera where you’re not even getting paid for your role sometimes you gotta let those drama queens find their own way!
Preach! If I wanted to be a trash can, I’d just buy a cute one for my kitchen!
