I mean how have people NOT learned that sarcasm through straight up text is something you need to make obvious? Between internet and texting alone you'd think people by now would learn, yet here we are I agree with this, too. For example, one way to make it extremely obvious that you're being sarcastic about, oh, let's say you're posting something about building wall on the border. End it by saying "and that's just for the Canadian wall!". That will make it extremely clear to everyone that you're being sarcastic. I saw your post when you made it and no, it wasn't clear enough at all. Because with all the outrageous shit that is said anymore, you need to likewise make it clear as day that you're being sarcastic and not rely on people to pick up on your tone when they can't audibly hear you. Hence the prevalence of emoji's and shit like /s or jk for like, the last 20 years or so. Come on man, this shit is easy --- https://youtu.be/zkNlmYJyFDo?t=80 "Like all fairy tales, Adam.
