      actually I found the joke to be funnier because it was litterally technically correct.

        That’s an internet thing.

        You often can’t easily distinguish irony/sarcasm from stupidity, written language (i.e., no cues like tone), language barriers in general (as a non-native I might not get subtleties or might use them wrong), and the high density of people on the spectrum doesn’t exactly help.

        Understanding people is hard.
