I understand that pears are prayers, but what are the thoughts stand-ins? It's the tater tots thingy?

It's clearly pussy-trapped, not booby-trapped.

The one who's hard to understand is you, with your complete lack of punctuation. "/s" is extremely common and pretty much everybody understands what it means. If you didn't know until now, no biggie, now you do and all is well.

And to answer your question, if a comment or a paragraph ends with an "/s", then you can be sure the author was being sarcastic in that comment/paragraph.
If there's no indicator, it could still be sarcastic or it could be serious, use your own judgement.

So no, not everything should be taken as sarcasm.

Well, first of all, it's old people slang at this point.

And second, I don't understand your outburst. You're free to start a serious thread about criticizing Russia's rhetoric, right next to the sarcastic thread that is criticizing Russia's rhetoric.

"/s" isn't 4chan slang, it's generic forum slang that existed before 4chan. It's a shortened version of XML-style closing tag.

Maybe they wash: 🤞

Ngl, that second meme is so bad, it hurts me physically. "iPad" for workstation OS? If they meant iPadOS, it would've been "iOS" at the time anyone would consider Vista.
Linux is "unlimited"? As in "open source"?

And honestly, in early 2010s, when Vista was still relevant, Linux wasn't really a choice yet (for the vast majority). I know, cause I tried.

Imagine what it'd do if it could drive.

It obviously means that the fart was spicy and is now burning his anus.

Sci-fi media always sets unrealistically high expectations for system interoperability.

Umm... Is the joke that what we see is actually a very small part of EM spectrum and things that we're unable to see is the vast majority? Or just that "haha rainbow gay"?

Damn, I didn't know Lloyd was in Star Trek.
