I wasn't belittling anyone. I thought it was kinda funny. I didn't realize anyone would take so much offense. People really have thin skins nowadays. Some folks need to chill out and learn to take a little joke now and then. Do I have to insert a little smiley face : ) at end of every little sarcastic post now? The seriousness of some people in the high end community never ceases to amaze me....

So you're passive aggressive or in denial. No problem either way but you made the first move as they say.

We have the nearly useless exclamation point.
But what we really need is a sarcasm punctuation.
So when we write something in deadpan and want it taken as funny we can stop the folks with no sense of humor from freaking out.
Maybe some sort of glyph of Sc or H for humor or sarcasm
Anyway it is a problem. mainly for folks who cannot figure out when something is supposed to be funny.
Also I would say some folks make it way too hard to figure out it is supposed to be 'funny' (including me.)
So true, Elizabeth! We DO need a sarcasm mark! I used my normal Haha but I think some thought I was laughing at them. I was not laughing at anyone, I was just pointing out how perhaps we lose perspective sometimes on the big picture. I was in a particularly "sober" or realistic mood at the time. For a moment I had forgotten that the name of this forum contains the word "Asylum" in it! "S" (the S symbol is for sarcasm)! : )
And don't forget "T" for Troll.
like mine, the seriousness of something like audio cables on this site is fascinating. Some of the posts read like finding the right cables is a medical miracle. The right cables have value in an audio system but, as some kind of 'cure', sigh.
"It's all fun and games until someone doesn't pick up on the sarcasm"
Hi
i have just read a research saying that a sarcastic attitude means depression.
If this is true if you feel sarcastic maybe it means that the whole cable issue makes you depressed
I am serious. This is bad.
Often i feel the same myself lately.
One case has been cable cooking issue.
I asked about the principle behind because i do perceive some changes with new cables with hours of use.
Nobody has been able to explain the principles behind this effect.
This is very depressing to me and it makes me sarcastic about the all issue.
Like ... they do not know what they are talking about.
I think that when principles are clear life is better and easier.
My advice would be not spend too much.
Go for the so called giant killers that sometimes appear in this forum.
Or if you have time go DIY.
You will find a lot of recipes here also.
Kind regards,

"I thought it was kinda funny."
Your entire post was, "Haha". I knew it was kinda something.
"The seriousness of some people in the high end community never ceases to amaze me...."
Frankly, I didn't take your post seriously.
