- Avoid sarcastic or funny alternatives in serious conversations. Tone misfires are hard to unsend.
- Read the alternative out loud before sending. If it sounds like something you would actually say, it is ready.
- For texts, shorter is almost always better. Trim any alternative that takes more than one breath to say.
- In emails, pair a formal opening alternative with a warm closing one to sound polished but human.
