It concerns me that we live in a world where so many people have lost the ability to tell the difference between sarcasm and genuine conversation...

I'm not blaming them. The firehose of information we have to deal with just to take part in society doesn't care what's coming out, it just cares that people consume it.

I really hope we figure this shit out before we kill ourselves. I grew up believing we all live in a better world than this. I want that back before I die.
