Nah pry my lists of 3 from my cold dead hands. And my emdashes sometime after that.

It's not X, it's Y, though? Couldn't be me.

It's a useful construction. "It's not true love, you matched with her on Hinge last week and have never met her, please don't send her $1000 in Apple gift cards" is punchy.

I think the real tell is when Y~=X. It's just performative. Like genuinely formative (the other tell is real/actual/genuine over a weak claim).

i was just yesterday yelling at Gemini for telling me, five times in a row, that it "had found the absolute truth of the problem" when it was wrong all 5 times lol
