I have such a problem doing this, omg

And of course I do, people on Reddit will act like I'm a super unfriendly bitch if I say something kinda serious and don't add any modifiers to indicate friendly tone

Lemmings do the same thing haha. You should see some of the reactions I get if my comments aren't super flowery and overly nice. Some don't like it when women are blunt and straightforward.

You gotta be Miss sunshine ALL THE TIME. It's so annoying. Not even trying to be a jerk, but just being pretty neutral will get people upset sometimes!

That's me, but I have the strong urge to insert emoticons like ":-)" instead.

But that's just because I am ancient and such new-fashioned stuff like adding "lol" is for this Millenial youngsters to do. ;-)

Ending with "lol" is considered a very Millennial thing.

/another Millennial, lol XD

I cannot describe how confused I was when I saw XD appearing initially. I couldn't figure out what it stood for, but initial 'x' left so few possibilities. I facepalmed when I found out.

That's exactly what I've been saying, my dear youngling! ;-)

I'm at the old end of millennials as well. Didn't understand your second sentence the first time around.

It’s upsetting how many people are unable to use punctuation and emojis to communicate tone, and don’t even understand why it’s important.
