      considering you were doing /s with out putting /s… i feel attacked.

        This all started when Trump got elected. The stupid people got emboldened and are openly speaking and now you can’t tell when someone is being sarcastic because we now know there are honestly people out there who would say the same thing, but seriously.

          That or sarcasm often requires vocal manipulation to be expressed and text can’t convey that very well.

        If your comment really was /s yours failed because you went against the joke and not with it.

        I wasn’t myself quite sure you got the sarcasm but think others were less sure. All good.
