The 21 Ways People Say “Yes” When Typing, Defined

What it means when someone texts or IMs you an affirmative answer.


1. yes = I'm just trying to be clear. Also, I might not like you.


2. yup = I got this.


3. yep = I got this and you're my best friend and/or I've seen you naked.


4. yea = This affirmation comes with doubt or a caveat. You're probably annoying me.


5. yeah = I'm hoping you'll keep texting because I'm not sure what to say.


6. yah = I don't know.


7. YAAAAASSSS = I am so into this idea, I am as happy as a teenager high on salvia.


8. yeses = While I am perfunctory and businesslike, I try to be lighthearted in my communication.


9. yesssssss = Whatever you said didn't previously occur to me. You are a genius.


10. yesyesyesyes = Like “yesssssss” but with more urgency.


11. y = I fully realize I am being passive aggressive in my response by potentially making you think I'm saying “why?”


12. k = I'm driving/busy/in a meeting/in a situation I probably shouldn't texting you.


13. ok = I don't really give a shit.


14. okay = Like “ok,” but different.


15. ok. = This conversation is over.


16. ok… = I'm not actually ok with this.


17. ok! = Got it! And I legitimately care, which is impressive in this day and age.


18. okie = I'm cute! Don't hate me!


19. OK = I'm your dad.


20. cool = I'm trying to be cool. I want to see you naked.


21. kewl = I'm trying to say yes without pissing you off.
