How good are you at determining the intent behind online posts? Can you tell when they're sarcastic? Serious?

But what if they're sarcastic to a set of people that they don't like but they don't always make it obvious that they don't like them? Some people can be extremely difficult to read, some people very easy.

Most of the time I can usually tell, especially looking at how they have posted before.

Usually I can tell, but sometimes if I haven't really seen the person post or whatever I can mistake it.

Its hard to tell I think because in text it can be really hard to convey tone, but some people can pull it off in an obvious way I think. *shrug*

i overanalyze things. especially with first impressions. i guess i'm kinda paranoid over the internet, when i know that's a little effed 'cause know one really knows you/cares about you, so i should be more lax.

Most of the time, I can tell. When I can't tell, I ask jokingly or politely ... or I may be mean.

Most of the time I can tell. But if I'm in a bad mood or something, the interpretation usually comes out a little more harsh. :T

It depends.
Sometimes, it's easy. Other times, I can't even tell. |
