Avoid sarcastic or funny alternatives in serious conversations. Tone misfires are hard to unsend.
Save two or three favorites instead of memorizing the whole list. Rotating a few keeps your wording fresh.
Adjust one word to make it yours: swap a name, a detail, or a reference only the two of you share.
For texts, shorter is almost always better. Trim any alternative that takes more than one breath to say.
