Literally nothing tires me out more in game talk than the words “should” and “is.”
Except possibly “this was totally worked out years ago, here read this thread before you bring it up again.” Which is basically “is” but with more words.

I founded the Indie Game Reading Club in 2010. I've written and developed RPGs since the mid-90s, now I mostly talk about playing them.
You should really just play this game that I am playing. It is the best.
As exhausting as game chat can be I still just love it! Looking forward to chatting games with you in April, Paul!

I kinda sorta don’t mind this.
If it was really worked out, that someone should (hah) be able to explain it to you in summary before pointing you to the thread…
Christian Griffen yeah it’s funny how it doesn’t really work that way.
How do you feel about “is” and “ought”? #Hume
Oh yeah “ought” is up in there with “should.”
Absolutes are always bad.
Robert Bohl always and forever, no exceptions.
Derrick Kapchinsky my dogmatic slumber!!!
Why do these words tire you? Asking for actual.
Because they’re territorial and closed minded.
I mostly just abandon conversations with people who have no historical awareness, instead, but I can’t tell if that’s more productive.
Derrick Kapchinsky beat me to the #Hume reference. Curse you, Derrick Kapchinsky !
Hans Messersmith Mwuahahaha!!!
