    It’s honestly impressive, most lemmings seem even worse than redditors at picking up sarcasm.

    Fuck the /s tag, all my homies hate the /s tag

      I’m autistic and I like the /s tag and other tone markers :(

      I think especially with sarcasm, the internet has such a wide mix of people that sometimes it can be very difficult to tell for sure if someone is being sarcastic or stupid.

      To be fair, I did pick up the sarcasm with decently high confidence in the original comment.

        That’s completely fair and a good point that I hadn’t considered. There are a lot of idiots on the internet that would unironically say things a lot of others would only say sarcastically, so I get the need for the /s tag and I’m probably being too judgemental about people that don’t pick up on what I consider to be obvious sarcasm.

        Thanks for sharing your point of view, I mean that genuinely! :)
