I feel like a lot of these posts are people just "poking the bear" and others end up taking them seriously. I understood this concept fairly early because of my family's heavy use of sarcasm and seeing Calvin's dad (of Calvin and Hobbes) explain things. Sometimes your best bet is to just not give the lesson and leave it alone so it doesn't get unnecessary attention.

I've deleted so many half written comments thinking "If this is what they think, do I really want to deal with the absolute garbage response I'll inevitably get back?"
