Sometimes I see this.. not just here, but everywhere. When people vent about what's going on in their lives, and they put some smiley face like this: "My life sucks " Okay, maybe not exactly like that, but similar. Don't get me wrong, maybe not everyone does this, but I can't help but wonder if people are asking for attention when they do this? It's one of my pet peeves, like is a face really necessary when you're venting? It feels like you're asking for attention. Which of course, they get. It also makes you look very immature, too. It's okay to vent/rant, but adding an extra face only makes you look dramatic about it. Not calling out names, just.. I've been seeing this once in a while. a frowny face I can understand when people are sad, but like why in the hell would you add a happy face when you're venting?

I try not to vent but when I'm upset I use sarcastic smiley faces in my texts
it's like being passive aggressive toward the situation...?

I always see it as being a sarcastic/passive aggressive thing which in itself can be annoying, I guess? but I don't really see how it's an attention seeking thing

people vent in different ways. idk I do this sometimes and its not really asking for attention but its more of a bitter thing? like "i went outside today and tripped on a rock and broke my nose :') " like in this case im obviously not happy about it and the reader can tell that im not happy i guess the smile is just sarcastic. like bitterly ha ha i broke my nose what now god
idk just let people vent how they want i guess. its not a big deal imo and it never occurred to me that something like this would annoy someone. i think its a silly thing to dwell on and its not very nice to suspect someone of craving attention when theyre just trying to vent about their lives.

I just see it as a way to vent I guess? I never really even paid much attention to it? like Anubis said let people vent how they want to, most people who vent aren't asking for attention

I guess I never really thought of the faces in a "bitter" way. Sorry for the misunderstanding, guys. Hope I wasn't offending.
