(note, this is a copy paste I have saved so I don't have to type it every time.)
I appreciate your helpfulness. It's only a small thing, but it speaks to your character that you have found it necessary to save this, to streamline being helpful.
Bouncing onto a different topic, I first learned of using backslash as an escape character in the context of the shrug ( ¯\_ (ツ)/¯ ) kaomoji. If you type it as it's shown there, its left arm gets lost, like this ¯_ (ツ)/¯
