That’s not a stereotype.

Something that is accurate and true is not a stereotype.

I’m sorry, but another user has already confirmed that some British men prefer being locked in the pantry so it isn’t accurate.

Sarcasm is damn near impossible to pick up over text unless it’s extremely obvious.
EdibleFriend@lemmy.world 9 months ago
If it’s extremely subtle sarcasm yes. I agree. There was nothing subtle about my post though

Yeah, I crack sarcastic Jokes all the time and it feels like no one on Lemmy gets sarcasm

I like to call them deadpan instead of sarcasm. Sarcasm has a tone to let others know that it isn’t serious, while deadpan relies fully on the content itself.
I had a lot more deadpan comments crash and burn on Reddit than here. And even in this case, someone just questioned the comment while it had overall positive reception. I think Lemmy generally gets deadpan.

Indeed. Some of us prefer being locked in the pantry.
