TYPO: Full Definition of typo. plural typos. : An error as of spelling, whether typed or in typeset.

Consider some strategic typos. While being explicit can increase the clarity of the emotion you wish to display, it does not mean that people will actually believe you are experiencing the emotion.

Oftentimes, people intentionally display emotions that they may not be experiencing for strategic purposes.
