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.

Sometimes if I think part of my comment isn’t clearly sarcastic enough I’ll go full html.
Like this:
Donald Trump is soooooo handsome
That's... beyond sarcasm. Hey, are you harassing us!?
/s btw :-P
What is even going on right now!? :-D
I would neeeeeeveerrrrr harass youuuuuu
(works in Always Has Been meme... though I am not sure how, nor much clue really even why!?:-P)
The /s is absolutely needed - and even then, sadly it does not always help:-P.
Instructions unclear, tempted to downvote to give me clarity.
..,
....
/s
As requested: WISDOM!
I find "/s" has become mandatory, else you get reddited to oblivion.
erm..../s
Not /s - genuine:-(
/s is not needed outside the US. In the UK and Oz, sarcasm is assumed until proven otherwise
You've been to Oz? 😳
Yes, I don't watch too much TV so it means something different
Don't worry, I'll always take your words ironically.
Oh, I'm a part of the problem.
Yay, we’re part of something!
Parasocial is better than no social at all
Debatable, honestly.
Everyone should join some of the art and literature communities here on Lemmy and scroll something creative instead of news.
They barely seem to show up under “All”. It’s mostly doom and gloom bullshit news
Follow me around Lemmy, I sprinkle poetry and stories all over!
Have you considered lowering the amount of doom and/or gloom that occurs IRL?
Aw thank you, I feel seen.
Go find some boobies or if you prefer some sausage and let out all the stress.
And what if you like both but just can't seem to choose?
Infinite diversity through infinite combination is a rule 34 specialty. You absolutely can find some chick with big boobs sporting tree trunk betwicks their nethers.
We're all sick in the head considering the inequities we tolerate.
Me too, thanks
The death penalty is good. Thoughts?
Yes, I do have those on occasion.
🤓
It has been proven to not work as a deterrent and innocent people have been put to death. Pass.
shocking to me that there's no band called Def Penalty
I disagree. The death penalty is bad.
Fuck the "justice " system. No fucking way I would trust them to find the right person.
Well, since you asked.......
Don’t leave us hanging, we want to know all your mentally ill thoughts
The need to be so online and updated is parasitic but has been so ingrained in me. I'd like to see a trend of being more offline and out-of-sight but that's also quite ironic.
I should probably just make this my phone's home background as a constant reminder.
