    Reverse italics would work so well.

    However I feel like to be truly good sarcasm, it needs to fly over someone’s head.

      Sarcasm doesn’t need to decieve, it needs to make a point IMO.

        Making it obvious with a /s or similar takes a away from that I feel

          We change our vocal intonation when delivering it verbally to help make it obvious. Text lacks those subtleties, so it needs a more direct signifier.

            I can see it being important in some cases, but the vast majority are fine

          /s doesn’t take away from the point, it’s just an indicator. In this day and age, it’s legitimately impossible to tell otherwise sometimes.

            I’ve always been a fan of using an asterisk, which I refer to as starcasm
