- For texts, shorter is almost always better. Trim any alternative that takes more than one breath to say.
- Save two or three favorites instead of memorizing the whole list. Rotating a few keeps your wording fresh.
- Read the alternative out loud before sending. If it sounds like something you would actually say, it is ready.
