Why is it SO HARD to type a simple GG after a good game?

I started with poker way back when and "nice hand" or "nh" was almost always sarcastic. I'm not concerned enough to keep up with etiquette trends and if neutral silence offends people it is their problem.  

Right now I'm playing far worse than my rating because I'm radically changing my opening system just because it seems like an interesting thing to do. I'm currently a mess in rapid and blitz because the positions are so alien that my instincts are just bad. More of a learning curve than I expected. 

It does seem obnoxious for someone to type "gg" in chat when I muddle the opening, immediately hang two pieces and the queen, and resign by move 20. I find it amusing but I imagine it would infuriate some people.

Everyone on the internet isn't real anyways, so what's the big deal?

1. I have chat disabled
2. People from all around the world use this site and not all of them know what it means.
3. It doesn't make too much sense to say it in hyper bullet.
4. People aren't required to say it back

I see people complain when people type GG and I see people complain when they don't. ;/

I can't find the G spot. It's caused me problems in other areas of my life as well.

Happened to me too. It would not accept a second edit. 

I usually say good game by pressing the good game button, and accepting the first couple of invitations to resend as well.

It might not have been good.

Sounds like it’s abit of a ritual. Would you rather everybody said it wether they meant it or not? On occasion I tend to say well played. But only when it’s true. And I don’t say it in an attempt to initiate a response, wether or not they respond doesn’t change the fact I think they played well
