“”Do I need a Sarc tag?””
Could be. The Sarc discriminator level is set pretty high for some folks.
When in doubt, ‘sarc’ it out
Another attention whore ‘journalist’ who nobody has heard of and noone later ever will - NOTE I didn’t even look at this persons name (I doubt most people will)
“My cat farts bigger than this tard.” - Jack Pallance
I ate it when they do that at the grocery store.
