This would destroy the joke, the ambiguity, wouldn't it?


Yes, it totally does!!!!

/s No, not if you do it afterwards. That you have to write these jokes like this is common knowledge, this kind of humor doesn't work otherwise on anonymous forums, you need to write below it that it was a joke and what you did, and since sarcasm is so common you have the "/s" end sarcasm tag.


I know humor is subjective, but I think this comment demonstrates the opposite of the point you’re making.
