Words are the worst medium to communicate emotions

>> No.21669526

I was going to disagree with you but it's true...

>> No.21669532

That's why you communicate visual information through words to communicate emotions through that.

>> No.21669533

you're right we should use emotes even though everyone still just spams laughing crying, blushing, heart eyes etc at random effectively conveying nothing
or we should post images and videos even though images and videos usually depict some kind of meme viral material or meme pose like duck lips or meme nigger ass shaking dance.

That doesn't tell me how sad you are or what kind of sadness it is
I will never be able to feel the amount of sadness you feel, or the type you feel
You will never be able to communicate me exactly the amount or the kind of sadness you are feeling , because words are highly subjective to each's experiences and perception of the world

So? I didn't intend to communicate that.

No method can ever do that, your rant against words is meaningless.

That's why emojis are so nice :) people should use them in books more

>> No.21669587

>>21669560
Yes, no method can do that.
I will never understand you and you will never understand me.
Every word I utter is indecipherable and I am but talking to myself, and when you speak I am but listening to myself.
I am alone, alone with you.
Words can not communicate anything and I am tired of being alone.
Words, actions, videos, music. All unable to reach my ears and yours.
I will blow up a mall today 2 blocks away from my house.

You're such a dumbass it's not even funny. Tell me, please, what went through your mind when you intended to disprove that anon by '[communicating] your emotions perfectly', but then right after in your second reply admit that no method can communicate your emotions.

>> No.21669639

>>21669517
Anyways anon, listen to >>21669532
This is the right way to communicate emotions because emotions arise from experience and experience arise from happenings. People experience similar happenings, and if it were not so, then words such as 'like', 'similar', 'relatable', 'akin', 'understandable' would not exist.

I don't take advice from or read comments of namefags. Delete the namefield or continue talking to a stone wall.

I disagree. And literature is the best medium by far that can actually relay the real depth of emotions.

THAT IS BECAUSE THE PURPOSE OF LANGUAGE IS TO COMMUNICATE IDEAS, CONCEPTS, NARRATIONS, NOT EMOTIONS.
