    For what it’s worth, I interpreted your original comment as a joke, but then the doubling and tripling down made me think you were serious. Sometimes you should just let the original lol stand alone.

      Yeah, I can see how that happens. But in my defense, I don’t think any real person could have gone through this thought process to turn the obvious clues into the most unreasonable conclusion possible.

        This is why they invented emoticons and emoji. On the Internet, no-one can tell you are smirking unless you tell them

          I’m not convinced that a visual equivalent to a laugh track would’ve changed it for the better.

          So you’re telling me he slept with a clone? 🤣🤣🤣

        I think you are underestimating the amount of near braindead people posting shit on the internet. Sometimes a person really is as dumb as you were pretending to be.

          I mean, plot holes on this meme?

          Any chance that in hindsight those people could’ve been joking?
