A few examples include s*x questions on askreddit, “this” comments, nolife powermods, jokes being more frequent than actual answers

        I don’t agree, /s is immensely useful for neurodivergent people, some of which cannot recognize sarcasm at all.

        Also, really often something that is “obvious sarcasm” for you is a genuinely held belief by someone online. Nothing is too ridiculous for the internet

        Sadly, I understand your point, but feel that I need to remind you of Poe’s Law. I think the /s is required because shit is all too real

      I was going to post that you’re lucky you included the /s, but I just realized we don’t have karma so it doesn’t matter anyways. Such a nice feeling…

        Fuck that /s If you’re unable to grasp context without it then just move on to a different discussion.
