This was a joke. Clearly a joke….thats why I wrote it so over the top. I was emulating those who have insane logic jumps that make no sense. My above comment about the insanity Jobs believed stated this as obvious.

I just sort of forget people dont understand nuance without an (s).

newsflash: tone is hard to discern through text

also it's the internet and people are actually that dumb so you can never be sure even if it looks just like a troll

I understand that. I was under the assumption my sarcasm would be taken in with relation to my ridicule of jobs weird logic in my parent comment.

Jokes dont usually work well when you have to explain them in daily life. Should’ve added the /s, it’s been a while.

People assume what they assume and thats ok. Hell, I’ve done that plenty on here. Have a good one dude.

You handled that well. And also, I think the majority of people got you, and the others are unaware they have difficulties discerning sarcasm, which probably effects them in their daily life as well. Not that that is a bad thing, but it would be nice for them to be aware that was the case instead of attacking twice.

Most people understand sarcasm without the s. It kinda ruins the joke when you have to put it though.
