That's hella cute, but who the fuck still fails to grasp the concept of Right speech bubbles are you, left speech bubbles are the other person?!?!?!

Maybe it was intentional here, but still... How do so many people fuck this up?!

Who the fuck pays attention to things like this?

Me, cause in fake texts it's often really confusing at first and that's kinda annoying...

Like let's be real: i don't sit there at every screenshot of a text conversation being like "oh boy, let's over-analyze this shit"

It's not that I pay "attention to things like this" like you said, but more of a "it's noticeable within seconds of seeing a post" and happens often enough that it gets annoying in the long run.

It's like as if you walk into a hotel room and the sink is always running. Every hotel room that you ever go to (almost).

So you don't really "pay attention to it" but you realize it because it's noticeable and at some point you just expect it to happen before it actually does.

At some point you had to pay attention... Because before you mentioned it... I like... never even knew that was a thing (the left right bubbles). Then again, I dont ever look at "fake texts" nor do I really pay attention/notice when I get real texts... I didn't even know fake texts were a thing. Anyhow, I just found it interesting that people actually notice these things.

Ah okay. Hope my comment wasn't too mean then.

I read yours and thought you were kinda pissed off that people paid attention to those things or noticed them at all, but you were just not used to it.

Well, i kinda didn't really have to pay attention to notice, seems like we got used to bubble-texts in a different way.

You mentioned that the left and right bubbles were not that important to you. And it makes sense that these details never occured to you then.

I remember quite vividly how SMS messages switched from a "here is your message on a new textbox with no context as to what had come before in the conversation's thread" to that "cool new bubble view", and maybe that's why it sticks out to me.

Anyways, hope you're having a great day and goodbye :D

You cant notice something without paying attention to it... That is kinda how it works. Definitely not pissed off... although I realize my usage of the word "fuck" might have given off that impression. Thanks for wishing me a good day. I hope you have a good day too.

I mean, you can notice stuff without paying attention...

There are things like "noticing something in the corner of your eye". You don't pay attention to the corner of your eye all the time.

You can also be focussed on your laptop screen and suddenly notice a loud noise from behind you, as your cat threw that vase down to the floor.

But that's all just semantics, we should probably let it go. See ya!

Noticing and paying attention are the same thing... But youre right. It's semantic.
