probably from all those people
who can't form a single sentence
without hitting "send"
every two words
I kinda need to do this with my dad, otherwise he doesn’t notice texts. For example he texts me “Buy that spread for €0.79”. “Hazelnut or cocoa?” which if I don’t follow with ~5 question marks, he won’t even notice.
I mean, it's understandable in cases like those, but when you tell a story that doesn't require an immediate answer and you end up sending 20 notifications instead of putting it in one longer message, it's more than annoying.
Just call him back

Call? What's wrong with you?
I recently started dating again and noticed a lot of people do this now it’s very annoying.
I've got one person doing that in my work group chat. I've got Buzzkill installed for the sole purpose of muting the chat for five minutes whenever they send a message in order to avoid my watch constantly vibrating for two minutes.
TIL about Buzzlill. Holy shit. I could probably do the same thing with Tasker but I'll happily pay $4 so I don't have to.
it can also be plugged into Tasker :) you can set conditions to run Tasker profiles, for example. just saying.
