When I use it, I mean ok, because that’s what it actually means. It’s simply a way to acknowledge someone was heard. I will not be changing bc others read more into it. Tis way too exhausting to consider every hidden meaning someone might have.
Boss said I can’t work from home anymore. I simply replied 👍
Right? I’ve been using it to mean, “acknowledged”, for years now. My kids told me just the other day that their group does not, and that they have to remind themselves I’m not being sarcastic when I send it. I have reached “that” age, it would appear.

Right? My reaction was to give them a thumbs up and move along. They laughed.
what other meaning could it have?
“Whatever.” Just depends on the context.
The only way I see it as being negative is to look at it like the “yeah, okay” Jennifer Lawrence meme.

I don’t care all that much. Sometimes a thumbs up is the way to acknowledge you heard them.
Sometimes people see things the way they want to see them. Not your fault.
👍🏻 ok there bud.
Found the Canadian. :)
The people that use it this way ruin it for everyone else.
Still counts as a contract agreement
Idk I hate when people get non obvious.
This is fucking dumb.

they’re flipping themselves off though
How are they flipping themselves off if your fingers point towards yourself when doing a thumbs up?
Because their mom is standing behind the hand and so it’s flipping her off and if you flip off someone’s mom you’re flipping them off and it’s time for a donnybrook
Huh?!
I use it as an acknowledgement at work, and to be a sarcastic asshole with my friends. Context is key.

the “heavy checkmark” is my “fuck you checkmark”
Especially a good one to say to your boss.
