    It’s more that sarcasm does not translate through text

      More so that it wasn’t funny regardless of whether or not we got the joke.

      Sarcasm done right translates just fine via written text.

        That’s the kind of mentality that leads to misunderstandings. You cannot translate tone through a written medium, that’s why emojis and the /s even exist in the first place

            Yes, ofc about your joke and don’t really have an opinion on it, but I am absolutely of the opinion that sarcasm is not compatible with text. What makes sense to you on writing is primed to be readan entirely different way by someone else based on their texting habits and even their current mood, that’s why I think the /s is necessary
