    Meh. Their problem, not mine.

    I feel it's her problem, nobody else's....wait, what if she doesn't know I'm kidding? Oh well, her problem, not mine.

    I just make sure my entire FL realizes that EVERYTHING I say is sarcasm and supposed to be for their laughing interest.

    Like the time you pushed me down and started kicking me in the ribs while playing a ukelele? Good times.

    Don't you just hate it? They can't detect your sarcasm, take you too seriously, don't take you seriously enough, you should've put a smilie but didn't and now they think you're yelling at them....

    COMPLAINT DEPARTMENT IS NOW OPEN.

    :bigsmile:

    Sarcasm is NOT communication, so they're all non-issues, just as long as one maintains a light-headed regard and approach, where appropriate.

    Edited: Typo

    A light-headed approach!?. . smoking dope is bad for you!

    That's not light enough but irie dear man :tongue: ... Cause that light be flyin' :laugh:

    Happens to me all the time in chat. It goes both ways, though. I definitely have my, "OMG, did you really just say that?" moments.

    YES...when i say "would bang" it means "I would bang you" or "I intend to bang you"

    It DOES NOT mean i'm trying to hijack the thread.

    On the contrary, I like the misunderstandings. You weed out those who will probably never "get" you easily anyway. It's a super distilled form of communication, with huge opportunity for intimacy.
    How's THAT for a paradigm shift?:smokin:
