Current Events > Do people throw out doublespeak as they talk to bait people?

(+) Yeah! (+)

Like for example a person says "can you hand me the lemonade" but it also sounds like "who the fuck cares about you, bitch?" Like they make it sound also like a different phrase while saying the original phrase at the same time.

Okay. You know the "yanny/laurel" thing? It's like that. People will be "obviously" saying a normal thing but they'll make it also sound like they're saying something else too but it's more lowkey.

i don't think that's what "doublespeak" is

Shut the front door!

probably not, but I didn't know what else to call it. two phrases being said at once, where one phrase is the obvious and dominant "normal" phrase, but the other phrase is more lowkey and tends to be insulting.

I dont think this is a real thing

It's not been decided to be officially recognized as real, but it's there.

---

the way you're describing it, it kinda sounds like when someone blurts out as fast as they can: "the idiot says 'what'" and then hope the other guy says "what?"

---

I mean it like, okay, you know how something can sound like two distinct things at one time? If you can't imagine that, think of like one of those demon voices where it's a normal voice and a lower pitch voice saying the same words. But they are two different sounds that still make up a single whole.

like nsync?

like This Topic / The Trent is a single image with multiple meanings

---

---

Are you talking about passive aggressiveness? Double entendres? Homographs?

---

Someone like you should consider doing that like what Calypso posted seems to be sorta that

Like sometimes Im guilty of saying It could be that, I guess it could be that

and then context of that is really me saying in another world it could be that

but its really a passive knock I cant fully commit to because that person may not deserve the full brunt of an insult >_>


---

Okay the best example I can give idk how much more I can try to explain this without retreading, but say some says "Hi!"
But to you it also sounds like they said "Die!" which is possibly a passive aggressive thing. They either intentionally or subconsciously or automatically made it also sound like they said "Die!" because they don't like you or something like that. Kind of like a freudian slip but they didn't technically say "die", it just sounds like it.

ohhh now i still don't get it

I dont know, but theres definitely been times Ive said I know you think things happen a certain way, but I can assure you the streets dont work like that

at the time I was laughing/smiling.. was humored at the prospect of someone really being way too naive >_______>

The best way to deal with double speak is to interpret the persons speech as whatever works best for you and move on. If they're losing out by trying to be underhanded, fuck em. They should speak what's on their mind if they want me to address it. I'm not saying purposely misunderstand someone tho. Don't become the dick. Ain't nobody got time to sit there and figure out someone elses psychology tho. People got their own lives.

This just sounds like you're really paranoid

see I think this is you tryna tell me to shut the fuck up because I'm saying things I ought not be saying, like I'm not wrong, but I'm not supposed to talk about it

yeah I know but they aren't losing out by being that way because they're being that way, TO ME. I don't matter, I don't count. People could disrespect me spit in my face and face no consequences.

Its a super passive way of telling someone youre way out of your league son

Hmm.. the phrase Aiit, bet comes to mind in terms of doublespeak but Im still struggling to find an exact scenario

I know Ive messed around with cadence since its almost like music, you can create a loud sound but it can be very gentle.. some words or phrases can be said in such a way that it seems almost normalized or feel that certain to gain some type of leverage

so what I'm talking about is real, I'm just not allowed to talk about it because of my status or lack thereof
other people are slick, I'm not. I'm just supposed to accept the crank and move on, right?

That's a lil extreme to me. A spit in the face is only comparable with a spit in the face. Since that's the absolute height of disrespect to me. It's not the same as someone ignoring you or talking over you. Because that literally happens to everyone. People I know for a fact love and care about me talk over me or ignore me at times. Because just like you and me, they're susceptible to zoning out or being distracted. It doesn't mean the person on the other end doesn't matter to you, it just means you got caught in a moment in your head.

I dunno. Saying the exact occasion that led to this would help. Maybe you already did.
