You might hate the /s, but it's really easy for peolple to miss the sarcasm (no matter how obvious it is!) when everything is in text.

But but...that's half the fun. Someone starts raging and every onlooker can clearly see they didn't catch the sarcasm.

Maybe...

It gets less funny if 80% of the comments are missing the sarcasm/joke though. It can happen even when the sarcastic remark is obvious (usually because the first reply took it seriously, which set the trend for the subsequent discussions)

That's why I put a /joke or /s mark preemptively in my comments.

Somehow, this is Tiktok's fault.

Rules:

  1. Be civil and nice.
  2. Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.
