sorry you didn't read the implied /s that I felt was absolutely unnecessary to actually type out giving readers here the benefit of the doubt that it was understood without stating the obvious. but thanks for reminding me that not everyone reads the intent

You fell afoul of Poe's law [1]. People do read intent, but I think you're overestimating how clearly you communicated your intent. You say the /s was implied, but implied by what? It's a crazy statement for sure, but people come make matter of fact crazy statements on here all the time.
