- glitchc 4y agoSounds like a totally collaborative/supportive workspace.
- mattrighetti 4y agoEvil
- _wldu 4y agoThat's probably a cyber crime in most US states. Edit: You guys have no sense of humor.
- deleted 4y ago[deleted]
- cyral 4y agoSounds like a job for the Highway Patrol
- buryat 4y agoHackernews is not a place for jokes
- bogwog 4y agoSo why are you here? (gotem)
- quickthrower2 4y agoIt is if the jokes are really sophisticated or clever. No reddit style stuff.
- kappuchino 4y agotry /s at the end of "offending" sentence, most people will look at it more kindly.
- dorkwood 4y agoI'm surprised the SarcMark™ never took off: https://www.sarcmark.com/ https://www.sarcmark.com/
- saagarjha 4y agoI am incredibly upset by the difference in speed of writing the text and drawing the SarcMark.
- ManBlanket 4y agoI'm sure you're great. Nothing against you, but please don't do that. Just write what you mean if you can't handle some people misinterpreting a sarcastic remark. Let's think about this for a second. What's the point of sarcasm? If you have to tell people you're being sarcastic, are you still being sarcastic? Not sure what territory, "/s" blunders into, but I'm confident it's not sarcasm. It's something else that seems kinda... dumb... like on a fundamental level. Did people think themselves above saying, "jk"? Mostly I've just seen, "/s" beg the question of why someone would go and ruin a good sarcasm, or whether the thing they labeled as such was ever sarcasm to begin with. Like the parent comment here for example, it's not sarcasm. There's no biting irony, mockery, or criticism. It's just a silly non-sequitur joke remark. You'd have to be like legitimately autistic or something to not see that, and at that point, "/s" is just a drop in a bucket. I mean hot-take here, sorry, but let's think twice before adopting social queues from reddit.
- IggleSniggle 4y agoSocial “cue” (as for an actor or musician) not “queue,” by the way.
- nephanth 4y agoIndicating sarcasm is not necessarily ruining it though. Look at IRL sarcasm, it will generally be accompanied with the right tone of voice and expression / body language that make its presence unequivocal. That doesn’t necessarily ruin it
- iinnPP 4y agoYou can say this and express it as a joke but the text reads like poor criticism.
- eyelidlessness 4y agoI read it as a joke, but I started with an assumption of good intent.
- Diesel555 4y agoFollowing the guidelines I see > Please respond to the strongest plausible interpretation of what someone says, not a weaker one that's easier to criticize. Assume good faith
- eyelidlessness 4y agoWell not for that reason, but it’s always a good reminder :)
- bee_rider 4y agoIs there a stronger plausible interpretation than: It is a joke, poking fun at our overly aggressive cyber crimes laws. ?
- Diesel555 4y agoNot that I know of. I really meant that he is following the guidelines. What were you assuming I meant?
- smarx007 4y agoOnly if it crashes MS Word 2007.
- jjeaff 4y agoYou joke, but comparing to past cases, I see no reason to believe it couldn't be considered a crime depending on who you do it to. All depends on the existence of some grumpy idiot with too much power.
- rawoke083600 4y agoHaha
- fdgsdfogijq 4y agohaha please do this
- ffhhj 4y agoSend it in your resume to annoy recruiters.
- elektrons 4y agoI’m curious what this will do to a google form.
