To wonder whay people have started to start an answer with 'so' when asked a question?

[Member869894]

I've noticed it a lot recently and find it very annoying

So what do you want to do about it lol

Whay

Don't you mean Why????

I love the way you write whay, OP. No sarcasm.

I've noticed it too, it's very annoying because once you catch it, you won't be able to unhear it.

It’s irritating I agree. I’ve also noticed people starting their response with “listen” which can seem quite aggressive.

You've only just noticed?

This has been happening for years, especially prevalent in the scientific community I've found.

Oh no it didn't annoy me before but now it will. Just ask the question! Don't be so cute about it!

I start a lot of sentences with 'so...'

I never realised until my pupils started taking the piss.

I have no idea why I do it. I'm not going to overthink it because the last thing I need is to feel more self conscious. I already have social anxiety.
