  1. I'm still thinking about the fact that another dice.camp user blocked me over a post I made in August 2023 about liking #VocalFry / #CreakyVoice more than monotone.

  2. I just watched a video about #VocalFry / #CreakyVoice and I have to say, unpopular opinion, perhaps, but I like it.

    I think I do it a fair bit as well, as it sounds good to me and means I don't need to say "um" as a filler while I construct the next thing I'm going to say.

    Also, I learned in school that varied speech was better than monotonal speech, mostly from the example provided by monotonal teachers.
