I only know the House M.D. intro song, but I do like it. Mezzanine, I think?

In case you didn't catch the joke, Unfabulous is a Nickelodeon TV show from 2000s, starring Emma Roberts. It's how she became "famous". IMO, the show was a bad, and her acting was bad.

How Unfabulous of you.

Sure, he might be doing it for the wrong reasons, but at least he's doing the "right" thing. Isn't that the best one could expect of him?

Criticizing someone else’s censorship in order to defend your own right to free speech is as valid a reason as any. In fact, I’d say it’s the very point.

Huh. Well, to be fair it's been a while since I played it...

Hmm... I don't remember that being in the original.

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.
