Yes, I saw a funny tweet that was something to the effect of “do I have plans later? Bruh I’m going to need some more information before I answer that”

But I could see the Friendship Purist argument of it shouldn’t matter what the activity is, you either want to hang out with them or you don’t

What if your friend was planning to jump off a cliff tomorrow night? Huh?!

But seriously, whether I'm free is truly dependent on the ask.

If you ask if I'm free without context the answer will always be "maybe"

A true "friendship purist" would not expect a friend to hang out unconditionally or without context

Guess this one wasn’t quite the wedge issue I thought it would be

I don’t recall a guy ever asking me if I was free without stating what for.

To screen peek: (v) the act of peeking at a stranger's electronic screen, e.g., phone, computer, etc., when utilizing common carriers such as planes, trains, or public transportation.

Are you a screen peeker? I'm not, myself. I follow the Golden Rule and adhere to the social compact, so as not to intrude in others' privacy in such a manner.

Come at me, voyeurs.  :comehere:

See, that kind of action just gets screen peekers all horned up. Love the old man lack of concern for obvious typos, though. Have we seen dax and this guy in the same room?
