I do find it rather odd how we Millennials and Gen X had little trouble understanding sarcasm on the internet, overall, but over the last couple of years there’s suddenly this huge push that we need to use ‘/s’ to make it extra super obvious. Does Gen Z not use sarcasm?
Hmm, it never occured to me it could be a generational thing. It was a thing on reddit, but there was also a lot of pushback and ultimately good sarcastic comments tended to survive. It feels much worse here, which I attributed to demographics.
Lots of neurodivergent people learn and enjoy sarcasm. But it does stay a little hard to recognize, yes. Adding the ‘/s’ kind of ruins the joke, though.
Oh. I love and enjoy sarcasm. I do not pick up on it well in text because you are all strangers so the nuance for me is cloudy if that makes sense. I also browse /all and uh im generally really stoned. Lol

It’s for neurodivergent people imo. I sometimes have trouble with it. Plus. I’ve seen some shit on the internet. It’s hard to know these days 😆
