Ev's kink corner

My mother was, among other things, an English major. She instilled in me a love of language. I became an avid reader quite young.

Now, many of you have likely come across the "slashyspeak" phenomenon online. Some of you practice it. You do you! That's ok. It's a quirky bit of online protocol, and everyone's preferences are their own on that account. It hurts no one! 

Except, it does hurt my head just a tiiiiny bit, because when someone types out "hey A/all, how are Y/you doing today?"

In my head, it reads as a stutter.

So it sounds, in my head, like "hey a-all, how are y-you doing today?"

Am I the only one who parses it like that?
