I’m all set, thanks! They could leave us nothing and it would be absolutely no problem. Perhaps your situation is different, but not all of us are counting on inheritances and cower at the idea of not getting one. -OP

Geez OP I was with you until this post. Wtf?

I’m with OP. How was she supposed to respond to “maybe they’ll disinherit you for your awful behavior”? A+ work here.

NP. It was very clearly sarcasm, and it should have been responded to as sarcasm.

That being said, I suspect OP was reading quickly and may be feeling a little raw about putting a story up on DCUM. (Understandably.) So I can see why she would have misread, but it was clearly a misreading.

NP. I didn't read it as sarcasm, especially with the additional posters saying things like "oh another MIL story, yawn." I really didn't read it as sarcasm. Just my two cents.

I know it's an anonymous forum and all, but I wouldn't be bragging about that if I were you. If you didn't understand that "Getting a little teary for you. Sniff." was sarcasm, I'm not sure what to say. And you don't have the (very charitable) excuse that the PP suggested, that the OP was a little raw.

Your joke sucked, and didn’t land. Just walk it off, friend. No charity required

Her post was fine, sorry you don’t get sarcasm. OP’s response was real Tuesday-ish too, IYKWIM

Dig in. It still wasn’t funny. I do get sarcasm. I also know most people aren’t very good at it, and it is not generally used well. that was def a swing and a miss. It read critical. You might want to practice more.

NP. It was so very obviously sarcastic…I’m confused how anyone could read it otherwise.

No. Are you the person who wrote the "joke"? Because it most definitely came off as aggressive rudeness, and OP was right to slam you.

Right?! "Getting a little teary for you. Sniff." How on earth anyone thought that was straight is beyond me.

This post was a supporter, OP. They were joking - “oh, wouldn’t it be suuuuch a shame if you were disinherited/banned & forbidden from going to that amaaaaazing place ever again?” (Ie - it would not be a shame, it would be great & the perfect solution since it sucks anyway).
Geez, you didn’t need to jump down their throat, I think you read a little too quickly to realize they were on your side.

I'm not OP, but I didn't read it that way at all. There ARE people who will do things for the inheritance.

Stop jumping all over the OP. She responded appropriately to a rude post. If posters don't get your sarcasm, then you didn't write it well enough.
