Ya, like wtf? I got what they were saying based on context clues, but I swear I've been seeing more and more profiles that are trying to do a "thing."

Like this person with the typed characters, I've seen another user in comment threads who posts in the third person and refers to themselves as their fursona (scale-sona?), and of course the trolls.

I guess I just don't get it.
