  • Using /s is utterly pointless and I can prove it, although I doubt you’ll read it.

    If someone legitimately doesn’t get the joke, adding a /s won’t make it funny to them, at most all it will do is prevent them from replying with some kind of attack. So I guess if internet harassment from incompetent people that can’t read sarcasm actually affects your mental state, adding a /s is a decent band-aid replacement for the therapy you obviously require.

    In most cases, the S is “necessary” because your joke wasn’t funny, and the S will not make it funny, it’ll just make people pity your lack of humor.

    Lastly, in the case where people get the joke, as soon as they see the S they will no longer find the joke funny. It’s the equivalent of saying bazinga after every joke. It’s not funny, it’s just annoying, and it ruins the few times you actually manage to tell a good joke.

    And feel free to keep shitflinging, I am neurodivergent and I don’t need morons like you self-ruining your jokes in the name of some random internet people with no social awareness.
