      @frostnhstaterep @Cheesemeister3k ah yes, it's been awhile since I took any English courses... anyways, what I'm reacting to here is conversations like: A. "We didn't really notice x." B. "What do you mean 'we'? *I* noticed x!" A. "I wasn't talking about you."

    @frostnhstaterep @Cheesemeister3k Basically, I'm reacting to situations where a speaker uses "we" to mean "I and an unspecified group of other people" and a listener takes themselves to be part of that unspecified group of other people, when they weren't originally intended as part of it.
