    No, I was pointing out that you seem to need a visual queue to understand sarcasm.. might have saved you some time instead of needing to go on a rant

      You're going to have to provide a lot more than a visual queue to explain what's meant to be sarcastic about "cancel batman lmao".

          Oh, almost never, I'm just saying that here the knowledge it's meant to be somehow sarcastic doesn't actually make their intent for the comment clear.

      Yeah maybe I guess. I don't usually need it, because there's generally some sort of joke or exaggeration involved with sarcasm.
