Just noticed that out of my last 20 :thonk: reaction, 14 of them are from @Angry_Panda and that's all from within a bit over a week. That has to be a new record, dude. :kek:

I don't understand, can someone give me a helping hand?
Ahem. Class is in session. Let me break it down for you.

We have what’s known in the field of Psychological Warfare (aka Forums Shenanigans) as the Reaction System. Now, nestled among these innocent little emoji buttons is a deceptively powerful tool, the “Thinking” reaction.

So, we have this emoji. Little guy with his hand on his chin. Innocent, right? Wrong. This tiny yellow philosopher is the Swiss army knife of passive aggression. Don’t be fooled. This isn’t just some idle chin-scratch. No. This thing carries more nuance than a 500-page Dostoevsky novel. Confusion? Sure. Suspicion? Absolutely. Passive-aggressive menace masked as aloof contemplation? Now we’re talking.

And lately, one Panda, name redacted for legal reasons (and also because he's Panda), has decided to go full Socratic assassin, spamming the thinking emoji like it's a tactical maneuver. At first, I thought it was just a phase. A quirk. But now? Now it’s psychological warfare. He knows what he’s doing. He wants us to see it.

This is no longer a reaction. This is a declaration of cerebral hostility!

Nah, nothing of this is happening Panda is just reacting me with a lotta thinking.

Personally, I like to use the "helpful" reaction when it's clearly not. I think it's pretty funny. Example

Did you draw that pfp by yourself? Why skulls, of all things? Are you bad to the bone (🎸 tananananana)?

1) Yes this is my own drawing. I was never more than a hobbyist and the state of the world has left me with no energy to practice, but my skeletons are my own.

2) I like skeletons; they're just the right amount of spooky to be cool without giving you nightmares. Plus they're very supportive.

3) Of course I am
