Dear all,
Do you easily recognize sarcasm or satire/parody over the internet? Quite honestly I sometimes don't.
Some things, like The Onion,or Babylon Bee, are readily apparent as satirical.
However, when just some random Joanna or Joe is trying THEIR hand at parody/satire/snarkiness, sometimes it's lost on me.

I rely a lot on sound. If someone is speaking and being sarcastic, I can usually pick up the implied tone. However, If it's over text, I don't always pick it up as well.

The Horse got me once, that’s for sure.

Sometimes it's hard to pick up someone's intention through the written word. Have a good day.
