HEY

glad to see you got one a these too

heheh yes i did! i couldn't resist.

I Was Wondering What JO Meant Since Its Not A Word

I Take It Its An Affectionate Nickname Then

yes

for jo

wwell john i guess

but

wwhatevver

uh...i don't know about "affectionate" but yeah, it's a nickname.

wwhats wwrong wwith it bein affectionate

uhh...well...

In human terms, "affectionate" is usually reserved for people you have romantic feelings for, or whom are related to you. They can sometimes

Really

be used between those who are very, very good friends, such as John and Dave, but typically it takes more than your normal friendship to

garner such attachment.

Typically yes.

exactly. what rose said. so it's just a little weird i guess. to use the word affectionate, i mean.

hmm

but jo wwere really good friends so howw can it be wweird

I Think It Is A Cultural Difference

You Seem To Be Implying That The Only Affection Involved Would Be

How To Put It

Romantic In A Flushed Manner

And Maybe Very Close Friendships Beyond That But Im Not Sure What Level That Implies

Unless there is familial relations involved, or the level of attachment between friends is that of familial relation. Jade and I are close

enough friends that it feels as though she could be my sister, and therefor I am not afraid to show her affection on occasion.

Dave and John are much the same way.

But yes, it is mostly reserved for flushed feelings.

I'm not quite sure what sorts of affection caliginous feelings could garner though, so I'm unsure as to leave that out or not.

The Nicknames Involved Would Typically Be A Bit More Insulting Than With Other Sorts Of Affection

Well

For Some People

how can you be affectionate towards someone that you hate? isn't that kind of the opposite of what you're supposed to be doing?

I Guess Others Would Give Insulting Names To Everyone

What Do You Think Of Hate As

its black affection jo

I Think I Need To Know That Before I Can Explain With Any Hope Of Actually Conveying Anything

...such as Fakemage Pinkscarf, perhaps?

i

no that

just

a uh

general type a nickname

Yes Eridan?

its just a general one no black feelins attached

Really? It sounds awfully insulting, however. And if merely "Jo" is something you would deem "affectionate"...
