One of the worst thing that happened on the Internet was the usage of /s tag. When I started seeing it on Reddit was when I knew that there is a huge humour divide amongst people. To that extent, I guess their programming worked.
Let's be real, the inability to read humor from subtext and context even without hearing someone's vocal tone directly absolutely comes from a lack of proper education, and an education and upbringing based around social justice instead of the core values and important lessons like proper English.
Is that being real? Or maybe it takes certain characteristics in a person to "detect sarcasm", much like it takes a sex-obsessed mind to see sexual innuendo everywhere / in innocent statements. Being sarcastic is being condescending to others, is being rude to whomever it is directed at.
Sarcasm can be rude but is not always…and is not as a general rule directed as a personal attack on someone. On the flip side…one can argue that people can’t laugh at themselves and find it offensive when someone makes light of their statements.
Can you give me an example of sarcasm directed at someone that isn't rude or meant to mock someone?
Maybe you are referring to sarcasm that is not directed at a person. But are you not mocking God when you say: "Oh what beautiful weather" but you mean to say it is terrible weather ?
Also add in there are some people that just take themselves and life way too seriously and can’t find humor in absurd scenarios.
True….who knew lack of sense of humor could be so dangerous…laughter really is the best medicine.
