    I think it’s useful. It’s not uncommon for people to not pick up on written sarcasm. I actually think we should adopt diacritics that denote emotion. Like emojis but more systematic.

      There was…

      I forgot what it was, maybe an upside exclamation point?

      That’d be less insufferable, but ultimately there’s no point in being sarcastic if you’re gonna tank it right at the end.
