If You Are A False Don't Entry
You can't just say something and not be serious without people taking you seriously. That's one of the reasons that people think I am being a moron so much, is because I never try to give a wink wink, or preface what I say if I am secretly being facetious, so you know the true intentions of what I say. I think I read into things too much. In my mind, the atmosphere of the internet is so saturated with memes, it becomes easy to see things and in turn think of things with a sort of expectation of post irony. Post irony being, doing something which doesn't reflect your true character, but doing it anyways because - it's just a freaky new age post modern - weird internet sort of thinking. I don't think that the people who I am talking to usually have that sort of notion.

This is what happens when a large portion of the information conveyed in conversation is based on tone of voice, facial expression, body language etc and you try to be equally subtle online with text alone.
You're unlikely to be any better at reading other people's intentions than anyone else here.
