I think we hit Poe's Law.


You think so? Did I neglect to make a clear indication of sarcasm that would distinguish the posting from a frank expression of extremism?

I'm reminded that when Jonathan Swift published _A Modest Proposal_, it was taken seriously by some. Or at least legend has it.


I caught it. But it looks like smacktoward did not.


Poe's law doesn't go far enough. I find Poe's law is true in the real world as well as the written world.
