Let's get something straight about sarcastic comments here, shall we?

Asked by zensky (13418points) November 21st, 2011

Back in June ‘08, the use of the tilde – this thing ~ was discussed here to denote sarcasm. It’s a fluther thing.

Now the collective is ever-changing. Newbies come and go, and discussions in threads will have both veterans (and some feel like vets after a few months, and others don’t even after years – it’s subjective) and newbies comments – the latter not always knowing when one is being serious or not.

I am writing this because of a misunderstanding on another thread. Just thought the fluther sarcasm tilde should get a refresher question.

Whether you actually use it, or not, is up to you of course.
