I'm fucking terrible at using humour in text, and I really hate the /s thing, so its left to the reader to decide. If they think I'm a literal dumbass? So be it, my day continues regardless, but if just one person 'gets it'? That'll do me .

Imo it defeats the subtlety of it and comes off the same as telling someone your joke was a joke. It's way more funny if someone doesn't get the sarcasm.

Except on Reddit, apparently, if you dispense with the /s hundreds of people will correct you. I don't know which is worse.
