I know this is, like, counter to your argument, which I fully agree with, but… I am triggered by the lack of periods at the end of your paragraphs.

However, when you put periods at the end of stuff like text messages, it sounds almost passive aggressive, doesn't it?

It's the difference between

"Okay"

And

"Okay."

Oh definitely. Context is everything.

Imagine getting hit with “K.”

I always punctuate everything and most people think I'm just angry. It's not that I'm a prescriptivist, I just take it as a game.
