OT: Hashtag

I had a waitress at Chili's tonight that spoke in hashtag. Literally spoke in hashtag, as in "Hashtag I'll be right back.", "Hashtag the wings are good.", "Hashtag dessert?"

WTF? you don't SAY hashtag, do you?

Had one a while back fill out a job application. Did not use sentences. Used hashtags with no other punctuation, like this:

#my name is roberd (yes he spelled his name wrong)
# Microsoft Office
# Viseo
# Salesforce
# communications degree #uga (yes, a degree in communi-fucking-cations!!!!)
# 2 years experience

etc.

Out of morbid curiosity I called him. He was very uncomfortable speaking. After a few seconds he told me to wait a minute. The line went dead. Then he resumed the conversation in texting.

    it gives you have a chance to edit before you post. unlike talking in the real time.

    I have never heard someone say "hashtag." It's like the Curb Your Enthusiasm episode where a woman says "LOL."

    Changes everything if you keep the # as pound instead of hashtag.... I have yet to get a phone tree that asks me to press hashtag for english, it is always press pound for english..... #METOO

    I've been guilty of saying hashtag and yes I hear it a lot with young women around me. It's doubtless where I picked it up.
