    I mean, the post you’re replying to was obviously sarcastic when I read it, even before I got to the edit. Blows my mind how many people can’t see that and need to have their hands held with an /s 🙄

      It’s obviously sarcastic, but also just like, not at all amusing and not reading the room. You don’t shit on her fashion sense after she has been barred from wearing them due to oppressive rules.

      Sarcasm Detection is Way Too Easy!

      You are misinformed, chances are you are about average at detecting sarcasm. Everybody think they are good at it, but you probably couldn’t detect sarcasm on something you agree on nearly as easily as you think.
      If you love the color blue, how do you decide between:

      1 I love the color blue, it’s so pretty. (true statement)
      2 I love the color blue, it’s so pretty. (Sarcasm)

      Even if it’s between 2 people who know each other, sarcasm is far from always detected. Even between married people the sarcasm detector isn’t 100%.
      Research has been done on that, and although I don’t recall the numbers, what I do recall is, that people detect sarcasm way less than we expect.

      Now was the first line sarcasm or not?
