“/s” isn’t 4chan slang, it’s generic forum slang that existed before 4chan. It’s a shortened version of XML-style closing tag.
Use normal language in serious conversations without kid slangs no wonder situation in europe is as it is.
This is hilarious. I’m picturing some old person just sitting behind their screen screaming. A real old man yells at clouds vibes.
Old people actually know what /s means. I’m pretty certain this is somebody who’s probably brand new to the internet and slightly new to the world.
Well, first of all, it’s old people slang at this point.
And second, I don’t understand your outburst. You’re free to start a serious thread about criticizing Russia’s rhetoric, right next to the sarcastic thread that is criticizing Russia’s rhetoric.
lay down the internet seriously not even nerds understand what you mean so you mean everything here should be taken as sarcasm or what?
Are you some kind of new moronic troll?
The one who’s hard to understand is you, with your complete lack of punctuation. “/s” is extremely common and pretty much everybody understands what it means. If you didn’t know until now, no biggie, now you do and all is well.
And to answer your question, if a comment or a paragraph ends with an “/s”, then you can be sure the author was being sarcastic in that comment/paragraph.
If there’s no indicator, it could still be sarcastic or it could be serious, use your own judgement.
So no, not everything should be taken as sarcasm.
no wonder the situation in europe is as it is
grammar nazi forgot the initials.
Well if the irony is lost on you then no wonder you’re in the situation you’re in
Stay off the internet if you don’t like how people write, moron.
