I'm gonna guess that she's happily startled because, for example, mine hit his weed pen outside every 15 minutes and fell asleep on the couch and never once came near me. I think that my experience (or smth similar) is pretty common.
Edit: Hi, I'm an actually human person and was the first to comment on this. I'm not trying to start a damn war of the roses, and apparently this is NOT the correct answer (see the next comment below mine). Just popped in with my stupid, obviously incorrect thought about what this could mean. So chill with calling me a stupid whore.
Mine left the hospital to grab a couple tallboys (large cans of beer) at the gas station across the street so he could get a buzz on while I was laboring.
Someone had downvoted every comment correctly saying edited to add. I'm guessing it's because they're thinking about estimated time of arrival, but, in context that makes no fucking sense.
Most people in America in general. Ppl doubling down on not being at fault in accidents, when there was a dash cam. It tells me that this person is not fully matured and probably never will be. Also makes me think their iq is very low because a smart person would learn from being wrong.
it sounds like this is your first day on the internet, people are gonna make far more pointless abbreviations and getting mad about it is a waste of energy
Haher, it is my first day on the internet.
I'm not mad about it, I just find it very idiotic.
If you want people to read you senseless opinions and understand, you gotta use common language.
Otherwise I could just write in some random other language too, and everyone would down vote me into oblivion.
It actually is your problem when people don't understand what you're saying, ETA is typically estimated time of arrival; I've been terminally online for 25+ years now and have never seen the abbreviation ETA used for anything else.
It actually is your problem if people don't understand what you're saying. Language is a common framework, when you refuse to use that framework for whatever bizarre reason; that's on you not us.
In the real world maybe, not in a comment section. Lol. Remember, not everyone is chronically online and comment sections and online interactions don't matter. If you struggle to understand something, then that's your problem. No one else's. Especially when others understand the meaning.
An asshole because I'm not accommodating you by changing how I write? Lmao. That just screams entitled. No one's gonna hold your hand because you don't understand something. Welcome to life, bud.
Google is free when you can't use your brain. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Since when? I've been on Reddit for years and this is the first I'm seeing it. What happened to just writing "edit"? Its literally one extra letter and isn't trying to replace a commonly used acronym.
Not common on all of Reddit, but perhaps on the reddits you frequent.
Anecdotal, but this the first time I've seen it anywhere at all, and I've been around a while. "Edit:" for paragraphs and brackets [like this] for inline edits, is what I usually see. It could be me that has been living in a bubble, of course. :)
