How do you read questions and details here on Fluther?

We all have preconceptions, prejudices, likes, dislikes, etc., and we bring those with us when we meet people. Face to face interaction is easier, because we receive visual and verbal clues about the meaning of what someone is saying. Interaction through text such as here on the Internet, even here on Fluther, is trickier. All we have to go on are the words with a few added emotive changes in the font at times to tell us what the writer is getting at.

It seems very easy to misinterpret through the veil of our own experiences on web sites like Fluther. I believe it’s quite easy to miss the point of some questions. When approaching a serious one, I wonder if it’s worthwhile to stop and take a breath and then read it in order to be more thoughtful in responding.
