That's on you. /s is for cowards and always has been.
/s just in case. plz don't downvote because that's something I definitely care about ...
It's not really the downvoting that's the whole reason, I also want people to understand and enjoy the joke. If I make a joke, and I knowingly leave an /s off, then I'm accepting that part of the audience won't get it, and if I'm just trying to be a dick about it and the only person intended to laugh is me, then okay, but I like to make other people laugh and be happy, so /s it is.
It's clumsy, sure, but I'd rather be clumsy than come across as an ass or not make any sense.
did you not see the /s?
do we need an indicator for meta sarcasm too? how deep can this really go?
aslo /s doesn't fix not making sense. I'm kind of an expert on that one.
My bad, I meant in general, not your specific comment
I feel like that /s was sarcastic...
