What a f*cking stupid thing to say, get back to work you underachiever lol
(..Is /s needed? I'm afraid of the other mentally ill people here)
The thing about /s is that it can never hurt. It’s why we do science on “obvious” things; confirmation and clarity is always valuable.
Oddly enough the “lol” actually introduces the biggest doubt to me. It taints the commitment to the satire somewhat.
/s can never hurt, but there will always be someone saying "I hate sarcasm tags because they're for stupid people" and that can hurt
Just remember that those are the stupid people because they don't understand that sarcasm isn't only about the reader but also the writer. Some people's sarcasm is much clearer than others and for the one's whose sarcasm isn't is heavily noticeable, the /s helps.
Also, whining about non-harmful stuff that people do that isn't what you would do instead of just living your life doing what makes you happy is generally pretty stupid anyways.
