Sense of humour failure

Anyone notice how serious some people (this forum and others) take the interweb?

It's quite a chuckle watching guy argue about something that actually has zero material effect on their lives... It always fascinates me (and often it's not just the 18 year olds!)

Happens to me 3 or 4 times a day. Unfortunately satire and irony (my two favorites) are frequently taken as serious or as sarcasm. Although I must confess that I have fallen in the trap as well and tried to argue against a joke.

Hey! The internet is real, man! I hate when people hurt my feelings online. In fact, I think I have PTSD from multiple comments I've read.
