    Because it’s kind of insufferable, and they’re not even consistent about it.

    Also it’s a futile gesture that’s just wasting everyone’s time.

      You chose to be here, to read their comment, and to complain about it. You’re wasting your own time, and that’s not their fault. Have some self discipline and take responsibility for what you choose to do with your time.

          God forbid anyone do something a little different I guess. Reminds me of the way people used to treat kids who were into anime in my high school. They would use Japanese honorifics from time to time and were ruthlessly mocked and bullied for it. I wish humans weren’t like this, there’d be a little more joy and fun in the world.
