Wolverine guide Etiquette Guide (not satire)

By Claire Conner

Digital

* Zoom vs. Facetime— Facetime for everything, only Zoom for school. Everyone's sick of it.

* In text, only use lowercase “haha” and “lol” when adding them to your own sentence. Using them as reactions indicates that you don’t think the joke you’re responding to is actually funny.

* Don’t text someone “we need to talk.”

* Read receipts are yucky.

* Only turn on read receipts in an emergency.

Amigos

* Driver gets the aux, but if you’re close friends, you can ask to add songs to the queue. If you consistently carpool with someone and usually drive, you should o er to let them put on one of their playlists.

* If you make eye contact with an acquaintance (someone you’ve talked to at school or a party but aren’t friends with) in public, you should smile and nod or say hi. Otherwise, you don’t have to acknowledge them but can if you’d like to.

* If you live far away from someone else in the city, you mostly have to suggest a neutral meeting place with an equal commute. Some caveats: a person has to pay for their own gas, a person can’t drive, etc.
