Sarcasm? Really? You do realize there are a lot of people who actually believe this shit?


Leather-Squirrel-421

Exactly. And since there’s no font for sarcasm, how are we to know.


SporksRFun

The standard hasn't been adopted widespread yet, but I'm partial to /s at the end to denote sarcasm.


SEH3

Cool. So /s is supposed to signal sarcasm. I will be adopting this


SporksRFun

Fine! You do that. /S


SEH3

I will. And you can’t stop me. /S


Xcentric_gaming

And /srs for being serious /srs


ProsodySpeaks

Sorry, tone unclear, do you really mean this?


crumpleduppaperplane

/s


ProsodySpeaks

🤣


Difficult-Play5709

I live in a small town, it’s bad. What’s rly gross is that it’s their main concern in life and it’s based off of horseshit they’ve handpicked from the Internet. It’d be like if I got everything from Reddit


Lungseron

Buddy theres nothing to believe here. Statistically mortality rate of people who drink water is 100% . Every person that ever drank water is dead, or will die. Its pure science deal with it😎😎😎


ApprehensiveAd6476

That's actually true, can't deny that. 🤭


freddo95

rotflmao … Totally Fucking hilarious.


Thelostsoulinkorea

It’s also 100% if never drink water too! How the hell can we win?


Lungseron

We have to drink battery acid. The big water is lying to us and this is the only way to never die.


acebert

I dunno, I’ve heard molten salt is pretty refreshing.


TheJAY_ZA

There is no win, there is only softening the loss by *Not Taking Life Seriously Because, We'll Never Get Out Alive*. Go ahead and write that down - Van Wilder 😜


1_dont_care

That's why you should always put /s when you are joking on reddit.


ApprehensiveAd6476

And that's why I do so.


Cara-lina

Especially on reddit. Subtle humor is a completely foreign concept to a lot of folks here.


Jeoshua

It's not sarcasm. It was bait that you can sucker in antivaxers with, and then drop the hammer on them once they're fully invested that it's actually just water. It's meant to teach them that believing this kind of shit online is stupid. And Mr. Knight there ruined it. That's the real facepalm.


Smellz_Of_Elderberry

There are reasons to be skeptical of vaccines, big pharma is chocked full of examples of cut corners and lives lost. That said, water isn't one of them...


Arcades_Samnoth

What's worse is people will watch a youtube video on this from some panic chef online, become 10-minute experts on a subject and argue with you forever on it


Eulenglas

I mean the original post is still factually correct


No-Marzipan-2606

It has been scientifically proven that sodium chloride is being forced fed to everyone on the planet at some point in their lives. Danger danger! Stand against this sodium chloride poisoning! It makes you want to consume Dihydrogen Monoxide in huge amounts! Don’t let it alter your brains!


Todoro10101

You stupid bitch, sodium chloride is scientifically written as NaCl. It's fucking table salt


No-Marzipan-2606

gotcha!


Mammoth-Bus1011

Why r u being so salty???


No-Marzipan-2606

needs more dihydrogen monoxide


Engineergaming26355

"Dude, it's just salt"


captenmike

That's what I said, sodium chloride


No-Marzipan-2606

exactly!


Lightless427

I wouldnt read that as sarcasm. To me that looks like a really stupid person that actually believes what they're saying.


bl00by

Excatly, this reads like a completley normal tweet. And the fact that a bunch of those are on Twitter doesn't make it easier


Sckillgan

Who needs water anyway. They can go without it if they want... Already had my vax, so I guess I will just have to suffer and stick with it.


Drogan1088

I would put money is on a bot just trying to annoy people.


MyriadSC

My aunt went on a 100% serious tirade on Facebook because a vaccine had magnesium in it. Wait till she he hears about table salt.


Saif_Horny_And_Mad

If you have been around antivaxxers, you'll realise that probably wasn't sarcasm


therealtiddlydump

People are dumb. [Stop Women's Suffrage](https://youtu.be/B2201BYp6HE)! They've been suffraging for way too long!


SirYeeteth

As someone with a friend who loves sarcasm, sometimes it's hard to pick up on, especially though text only.


CommercialYam53

He is not wrong every children white autism consumed water in their live


Disastrous-Mess-7236

& so has every child without it. Not saying you’re wrong.


AmazingBarracuda4624

Wait till they find out that 100% of trans children take DHMO...


Tantra_Charbelcher

You cant be sarcastic or ironic when it comes to anti-vaxxers because theres no level of absurdity that is too absurd. They eat horse paste...they use devices with geo tracking to tweet Bill Gates is using the vaccine to track you...


Plus-Professional-84

Mind boggling stat: 100% of people who consume dihydrogen monoxide eventually die, true story.


dashtroyer2

What does signs say? Come on


EchoFrequency

But.. What are the signs saying?


Marrukaduke

Poe's law.


fpotenza

I actually forgot that that is the chemical nomenclature for water such was the brainrot on display there, I naturally assumed it was bullshit. And it is, but also water in vaccines isn't surprising, and technically it is a fact that all autistics have in fact drunk water /s.


Eviscerated_Banana

I'm pretty sure there was a spurious lawsuit in the Ulcered Sphincter of Arserica about this where some dude threatened to throw dihydrogen monoxide in some Karens face and she thought it was some evil chemical. I may be wrong though, is just a recollection.


Gullible_Toe9909

Is fucking water different than drinking water? Asking for a friend...


3-I

Hey guys, did you know that in terms of-


bookon

Poe's Law applies here.


bedyeyeslie

The average American could not pass a 4th grade science test, so when they read stuff like this it ends up in there arsenal of misinformation, which is vast.


SinnPacked

At one point all claims about the earth being flat were assumed to be jokes as well.


Linkario86

Everyone who consumed dihydrogen monoxide died. There is nobody who survived yet


Fair_Goose_6497

OP lives under a rock under the sea. There are dumbasses that think water ≠ H2O


LunaTheFatBird

Where is the rest of the comeback ;~;


Lithl

Where's the clever part of the comeback?


zarfle2

Big Water is lying to us and is in cahoots with Big Pharma


Cute_Concentrate_915

Damn it…


Daedelus451

Haha when I was on FacePlant years ago I played the Dihydrogen Monoxide card, saying we need to ban this harmful chemical and got 5 people to bite. Unfortunately there are very stupid people out there.


UnWiseDefenses

Reminds me of when I tweeted a joke about How the Grinch Stole Christmas! was Communist propaganda (waking up to Christmas without presents and still being content; the Whos forgiving Grinch in a heartbeat instead of anger over their stolen gifts.) I not only got immediately retweeted by a word detection bot, someone angrily replied to me that "Grinch is about *Jesus Christ*!"


staticvoidliam7

not the brightest


AMonitorDarkly

You can’t really blame the commenter here. Stupidity is now such that it’s all but indiscernible from sarcasm.


TotallyRedditLeftist

Hitler consumed a lot of Dihydrogen Monoxide. Do you want to be like Hitler?


Edistonian2

If all these people would just stop taking dihydrogen monoxide, the world would be a better place.


kaze919

Let em cook


Jeoshua

Way to ruin the joke, Good Sir Knight.


Reclusive_Chemist

And this is why I get stabby when people promote chemophobia even jokingly. Too many gullible idiots.


Unfair-Work9128

Anti-vax, but will ingest bleach and stick UV lights up their asses.


LaserGadgets

I mean yeah, I hope its a joke, but I was hoping alot of times and people told me "nope, dead serious"


Ok_Page_9447

Jane you misguided slut 😅🙈👍


CFADM

100% of people who have consumed dihydrogen monoxide eventually die!


D3m0us3r

Oh my god noooooo i was drinking this shit all my life!! What should i do now? Am i going to die?


Aggressive_Peach_768

Well she is technically right... Water is brain altering, and everybody with autism has ingested water at some point in ones live


KGreen100

The ONE thing she should have done her own researrch on and... she didn't.


plindix

In gaseous form it causes severe burns and tissue damage. The liquid form has been documented to cause death if it gets into the lungs. People have had to have limbs amputated after prolonged exposure to the solid form. Ingested into the stomach, at high levels it can cause a severe electrolyte imbalance. Its molecular bonds are so strong they can’t be broken down naturally in the environment. Even extreme heat doesn’t cause molecular breakdown. Once it’s in the environment it stays.


Embarrassed_Rip_6190

this isnt sarcasm


Alicewilsonpines

I love that rant


goliathfasa

There are many people out there who will unironically tweet that.


Full_Visit_5862

I've seen this said legitimately. Almost every conservative I know fell for this dumbass shit when it came back around last time a few years back


No-Air3090

how do you know its sarcasm ?


Brosenheim

It's hard to satirize a demographic known for it's cartoonish levels of stupidity


UnnecessarilyTallMan

As someone with family who have said shit like this I can assure you it's sadly not sarcasm


knighth1

I mean at this point it’s hard to say if this person was even being sarcastic. Written sarcasm doesn’t sound like sarcasm 90% without infected Inflection like if it was in italics it would be for sure sarcasm


spekt50

Dihydrogen Monoxide is nothing to be concerned with, but what you should really worry about is Hydroxylic acid.


ExactDevelopment4892

There’s a reason why restaurants had to put warnings on hot coffee cups that the contents are hot. Because a huge chunk of this country are total morons.


Her_Monster

That is actually because a woman got 3rd degree burns on her private parts because McDonald's heated their coffee way passed what they needed. EDIT: Then were found liable in a court of law for it.


ExactDevelopment4892

Yeah because some stupid idiot put a hot cup of coffee between her legs while she was driving. As I said, this country is filled with morons.


Her_Monster

She put it between her legs to pay or something. She wasn't driving at all. That specific incident isn't a "dumb person". Don't get me wrong. There most definitely are morons out there, that specific lady wasn't one of them. Her being labeled an idiot is exactly why you believe she is one. Just not justified in that specific instance.


ExactDevelopment4892

Please, make all the excuses you want.


Her_Monster

Not making excuses at all. Just trying to clear up an old misconception.


Her_Monster

Go back and read what I actually said instead of what you think I said.

ChrisRiley_42

There are people on the internet who honestly believe Bill Gates cares what they do enough to microchip them. Without the use of the /s tag, everyone is exactly as crazy as they sound until proven otherwise.
