hj has two meanings, theyre basically the same definition but theyre used in different contexts , when used in general spaces close to other regular tone tags it means half-joking, vs when used specifically in circlejerk reddit subs along w things like /uj (unjerk, used to show youre speaking out of character essentially) or /rj (rejerk, going back into character) then it means half jerk, aka basically the same as half joking just matching the other acronyms for the space
Me: I'm a cool adult who's in touch with the youth and won't denigrate their slang.
The Youth: *use 'pos' to mean 'positive'*
Me: The lord is testing me.
#which does make it very funny when reddit viciously mocks any and all tone tag usage and its like.#like bb you also use tone tags that mean 'this is sarcasm' vs 'this is not sarcasm'. you can say you just like it more bc it has jerk in it#also the reason i mention a reddit thing here is bc i have seen it leak out onto this site too#otherwise idve just mentioned the half joking part‚ thats the main one ull run into#or i guess not specifically reddit circlejerk subs so much as like. spaces that embody the circlejerk sub vibe#w/e thats semantics anyways. yes. good talk team hit the showers
