What's up with everyone using this "þ" character instead of "th"? (sh.itjust.works)

if this trend goes on a while I'll adjust but until then that is going to read as pank/bank which transforms into a shorthand for spank bank.

it's like when /hj was going around and i read it as "end handjob" even after i looked up what it was supposed to mean.

TIL about being half-joking

I don't know what /hj means but I'm just going to roll with end handjob because that is entertaining.
