Wait, was THAT sarcasm? Because if you ask me saying that someone should be able to detect the true intent of the original comment MUST be sarcasm. But then I'm not so much detecting as deducing.

I unfortunately am not the best at detecting sarcasm in real life, and infinitely worse online. Anyway, it appears his comment is no longer flagged/dead.
