Between this and your other comment*, you seem to be simultaneously expecting me to be more and also less literal in how I read your comments.

I expect you to be able to use your brain to distinguish obvious hyperbole (it was absolutely obvious) with a matter of fact statement.

I am starting to suspect that this playing dumb is entirely disingenuous.

You've never met people who take what you now call obvious hyperbole absolutely seriously and literally?

I guess you're going to continue to get surprised by how often you get criticised in this specific way, by many, many other people.

Hint: when someone doesn't understand you, you were in fact not obvious, no matter what you think — communication is a multiplayer game, not a single-player endeavour.
