What is your favorite passive agressive insult to send in chat?

The type of thing where someone in a general school chat promotes something like the nft collection they are minting and you want to passively aggresivelly respond

Yeah, concern trolling is great for this. "Oh my god, Jennifer's account has been hacked by some bot selling essential oils! Someone should call her up and tell her so she can change her password."

I’m so glad I didn’t have to grow up with “a general school chat.” Sounds like a fucking nightmare.

Kyoyeou@slrpnk.net · 12 pts · 2y (4 replies)

Well it's a society discord, but there is like 700 people on it and they just posted in general

quinnly@lemmy.ml · 14 pts · 2y (1 reply)

That's...odd.

But then again smart phones weren't a thing when I was in school so most of this kinda stuff seems odd to me. I'm with the other guy, I'm glad I never had to deal with any nonsense resembling this.

Yeah 100%. School was hard enough pre-social media.

I can't fathom how anyone would enjoy being on a Discord server with more than a few dozen active users, and even then, more than a dozen or so active users at any given time. Above a certain threshold it just becomes noise.

Unless 97% of them never speak. Which, in my experience, is totally plausible.

Still. Weird way to do socials with schoolmates, imo. I would have expected students to self-select into smaller friend groups on Discord or TikTok or WhatsApp or Snapchat or whatever the hell people use now. Not coalesce into one giant digital town square. Not knockin' it, though. Seems like a neat idea.

97% do never speak, they're just here to get informations on upcoming events

Whenever someone has a very traditional, conservative discourse online, I like to ask if their vision is based on movement. 🦖

Wow. Thousands of years, billions of humans. And I got lucky to find the one human who is the pinnacle of evolution, who possesses all knowledge, has unlocked the secrets of the universe. How did you achieve this? Please, tell me your secret.

I'm a guy too. It's a quote from a female streamer that has been passed around my friend group for a while.

If it's a conservative or religious person trying to justify something:

"That's really interesting, why do you think --insert brief summary of their topic/first sentence-- ?"

Continue this until they realize they've either painted themselves into a corner or they realize I'm trolling them several monologues/pages later. It's the uno reverso card when they try wasting my time.

Soleos@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 2y (3 replies)

That's not an insult, it's a specific form of trolling/harassment called sealioning.

graymess@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 2y (1 reply)

That's really interesting. Why do they call it sealioning?

For NFT specifically I'd link the olive garden NFT project and encourage people to mint those unlimited bread sticks.

lvxferre@lemmy.ml · 5 pts · 2y

None. I hate pass-aggro; I'd rather be dry (bald-on record) or upfront (plain aggro).

What I'd do in this case depends mostly on

  1. if I trust some person in power to handle this shit in a smart way. Either one in charge of the group or the school.
  2. how insistent the NFT scammer is.
  3. how much I care about other people in the group that might fall for the NFT scam.

For #2 and #3, on best hypothesis (no insistence + I don't care about others) I'd simply answer "not interested". However, get me motivated enough and I'll be rather colourful with language usage, to the best that the platform allows me. Such as:

As I already bloody said over and over and over and over, I do not want your NFT bullshit. "No" means "no" for anyone with basic reading comprehension, unlike you. Your NFTs have zero intrinsic value. You might be able to convince some goddamn morons to join your pyramid scheme, but I'm not doing it. Is this clear??? Stop insisting and fuck off.

Further links for anyone interested: [link associating NFT bullshit to pyramid schemes], [Wikipedia link explaining pyramid schemes] I heavily recommend you guys to read this before buying anything from this guy.

Followed by blocking the moron for the sake of my own sanity.

A lot of the people I encounter are hypochondriacs, and someone asked me if it was me being caring or me being passive-aggressive that I can be found telling them all the things they didn't know they might have. I paused for a moment and replied "...maybe."

I think people missed the part were this is pretty funny and downvoted it thinking he misunderstood.
