You have so few natural resouces[sic]

Wait. You're from the "no child left behind" generation, aren't ya? Resources is really what we do well. That, and repelling invaders with drunken arsonists.

yes it was sarcasm despite my tendency not to label it.

[–] AmosBurton_ThatGuy@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 months ago (2 children)

It's honestly impressive, most lemmings seem even worse than redditors at picking up sarcasm.

Fuck the /s tag, all my homies hate the /s tag

I'm autistic and I like the /s tag and other tone markers :(

I think especially with sarcasm, the internet has such a wide mix of people that sometimes it can be very difficult to tell for sure if someone is being sarcastic or stupid.

To be fair, I did pick up the sarcasm with decently high confidence in the original comment.

That's completely fair and a good point that I hadn't considered. There are a lot of idiots on the internet that would unironically say things a lot of others would only say sarcastically, so I get the need for the /s tag and I'm probably being too judgemental about people that don't pick up on what I consider to be obvious sarcasm.

Thanks for sharing your point of view, I mean that genuinely! :)

Thanks for your open mindedness! And yay that means we can be homies now 😎

[–] AmosBurton_ThatGuy@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 months ago

Fuck close minded people, all my homies hate close minded people.
