What is with the confetti?
iOS automatically detects certain key words/phrases, and does animations. Or you can just hold down the Send button to trigger it (and a variety of other effects) manually. This person went out of their way to intentionally trigger the confetti with the “I think we should see other people” message, by holding Send and then selecting the confetti option.
Maybe they thought it was like throwing a smoke bomb, and they could ghost while it clears.
Brutal.
iOS added animations to the iMessage app a while back. When it detects that you've said certain things or sent certain emojis, it shows an animation. I think one of those things is that "yay" or "congrats" gets you confetti all over the screen.
Not sure why it's happening for "I think we should see other people," though.
You can manually show whatever animation you want just hold down the send button
I think there's a reason the message before is hidden.
We could also consider the possibility this is a meme made for funny.

Yo is that my man James Hong? Hell yeah. I literally heard that in my head in his voice. Complete with the little "hehheh auhhh...." thing he does.
That guy INVENTED that archetype. David Lo Pan, Covetus Chen, Mr. Ping, Chi Fu, random call of duty characters, hundreds of roles. They're always so colorful and hilarious and likable or even hateable.
Sorry, just a random appreciation I have...
I love this place for exactly this reason. Love learning new things!
