    Entertaining/funny macros to use in dungeons

    I was thinking about trying to make some text macros for party chat, to use paired with certain abilities such as a White Mage's Asylum, or a Warrior's Holmgang. and I was hoping to get some ideas/stories from the community about entertaining and funny macros you guys use or have seen others use. Y'know, the ones that made everyone laugh or smile, and made runs that much more fun and wholesome feeling. I really wanna try to bring a good vibe and a little humor to the daily dungeons and make each day a little brighter. Alas, I'm not very creative so I turn to my fellow XIV players for assistance. Let's see what you've got! ASCII art is okay too!

    A safe bet that's one half cringe, one half endearing is to use stereotypical anime tropes like tsundere tank macros.

    There are no entertaining chat macros to use during duties.

    Please don't. These macros are more annoying than entertaining.



    You can use some - but don't couple them with skills. Just activate them in the right moment.

    It’s a good thing not to answer your enemies. I scarcely ever do. Perhaps Emily is more like me than I am like myself. Perhaps she would rather not answer her friends, even. She keeps it all in her heart.

    ability macros are pretty annoying imo and are not recommended due to the delay
    but a simple hello and good bye macro(without too many SFX) for duties is fine

    Please don't do that.

    Also, I genuinely feel like the people with the tyfp messages with the sounds and the cute symbols are fishing for commendations. So I do my part and give them to someone else.

    Use it sparingly.

    It's ok to be wrong. Keep in mind, these are for low end duties. Daily rolos, not Savage or higher. There's no harm in using simple macros like this, with a bit of humor in them.

    I was once in a party with an astrologian who had YuGiOh quotes macro'd to every spell. Literally. Every. Spell. Even the most basic attack and heal spells. I have never wished a disconnect on someone so hard in my life.

    Thankfully the rest of the party was just as annoyed by it as I was and they got kicked as soon as possible.
