    If you’re being sarcastic it isn’t clear. “Just following orders” is never an excuse. The Nazis tried to use that one.

      I am trying to say this as politely as possible:

      if that wasn’t clearly sarcasm then you need to desperately work on your reading comprehension.

        Or maybe, just maybe, everyone communicates differently and sarcasm is hard to portray in written communication. Go eat some and chill a minute. I’ve heard plenty of people say the exact same thing you just said and did not mean it as sarcasm, which makes it even harder to tell.

          You could just as easily have said, “Hey, I’m having a hard time trying to determine if you’re being sarcastic, could you please clarify?” and then waited for response to decide to include the bit about Nazis in you reply.
