a problem that I have with textual communication: sometimes I say "this is sincere" or "I'm not kidding" because a statement sounds sarcastic on its own, but adding that clarifier just makes it sound more sarcastic

so I end up being like, "I mean this sincerely and I'm also being sincere about my sincerity!"

@sonya I totally agree. Sometimes though, you just have to leave some interpretation of meaning in the hands of the receiver, because ergh squishy humans and our wetware and our feelings and our silly pattern-recognising eyes and ears.
