I fully expect what the first reply to this might be.
I love using thumbs up ironically. Like is someone trying to ask for an explanation to why i don’t sit down to shit? 👍
I do
(sorry, not the first)
I give a thumbs up to tell my scuba buddy that its time to ascend
That’s very anecdotal, do you know any studies that investigate thumbs up prevalence IRL and online?
Everyone i know gives thumbs up
👍 same
Same, even my young kids if I ask them a yes/no question while they’re eating to avoid talking with their mouth full.
Wildly untrue. I see thumbs up every day.
But people do. I use it all the time.
The deaf guys at my warehouse exist lol
I should get better at ASL
i use it a lot… when im on the phone and someone pops in asking question only needing a positive response.
I feel like this is a you thing. I bet if you started doing it around people others would start doing it without realizing.
That might be true, or something local. I posted that this morning then got too busy to check in. I probably should have made it less about “positive/negative” and more about “it’s cool vs not cool” Here is my way too late OP explanation:
I go to a lot of sports events, hockey mostly. Since the 90s my friends and I play a little game. Count the people who give a #1 finger on the jumbotron vs point at their jersey vs thumbs up. Collectively, we have decided that ”kids today” don’t use thumbs up as much as in the past. I also noticed “Let’s go!” Is the cheer these days.
Sorry for oversimplifying my shower thought.
Do finger guns count as a thumbs up? My thumbs are up when I do them.
That depends, is it a revolver or a semi-auto?
Double action revolvers are semi auto.
Some mag fed pistols have external hammers.
Honestly, I know fuck-all about guns. I just thought I’d make a funny 😓
Good effort.
I use it on Teams
I use it on Skype. Not just video, but in chat as well
I give thumbs up all the time. Usually two of them at the same time with a forced smile to let people know I wanna turn into oncoming traffic every day.
