To cringe when people just x at the end of their post?

[MermaidTailUnicornHorn]

I’m from a place in the UK where it’s common to put x at the end of a text, card etc

But even I find it really cringey when a poster puts an x at the end of their post .., I’m seeing it more and more on here.

Xxx

Uneducated? Why would it be uneducated? x

And some people come across as snobby and judgemental... xxx

Uneducated Now that is a bit rich

X

I’m here for you OP... holding your hand.

I agree with others that it can be a kind gesture towards a poster who sounds very upset or distressed - nothing wrong with a bit of support or sympathy!

Here, have my first and a xxx

Xxxx

Yes, a kiss at the end of a message is SO uneducated.
Suck on my phd etc etc.
Xxx

I don't give my kisses away easily
I just find it friendly if anyone does it though.

I always put an x in any communications with my dc or dh. Why not? I'm not immature or uneducated but I'd rather not post all my qualifications xxxxx

I've seen a few such posts which are obviously accidental. Or if OP is upset then it's appropriate. Hardly an epidemic of hun-itus. Yabu.

It’s also embarrassing that people are still commenting “x” on this thread despite the other 10 people doing it ... thinking it’s an original hilarious comment. ... nope you’re just an unoriginal twit

We aren't doing it to be original, we are doing it to be annoying. x

I now have save all your kisses for me stuck in my head. Very U.

I always put an x in any communications with my dc or dh. Why not?

You communicate with your dc and dh over mumsnet? Or you just couldn’t understand my original post.

I don’t put x on anything other than Birthday cards to my children.

What with Hun, hubs and bubba I’ve seen on here lately it’s the lesser of those evils.

I've done it by mistake before, also on Facebook, then cringed at myself.

Only one? They must be annoyed. Surely 2 is standard?

Well this thread is not original by a long long way so I guess that makes you, OP, a bit of a tedious twit who can’t even be arsed to use AS to find out if a subject has already been done to death.

But it doesn’t annoy me and I never once said it did.

I said it makes me cringe. But that would only be when it’s genuinely being used. Couldn’t give a toss otherwise.

I'm with you OP, not uneducated but definitely tacky.

Not as bad as "hun" though.... I hate that.

ducks and runs

Yes I’m the first poster to ever post about something that’s been discussed before. Maybe next I’ll start a trans thread.

I've seen some posters do it at the end of every post, however mundane, and I do think it's a bit strange.
