LMAO!!! Well the jury is still out on the missing screws, ha, but even after I invited chairmakers into the thread to offer their perspective? Really?
Satire is a fine line and I guess I did my job too well. Scary!

by paying close attention to the details: content, choice of words, word usage, as well as punctuation. much like reading.

Actually, it's not very easy (especially with people you don't know well, I'd imagine.)

"How good are you at guessing the tone of voice of the emails you receive? Can you tell when someone is being sarcastic, serious or is joking?
Most of us think we can do this about 90% of the time. However, according to psychologists Dr. Nicholas Epley (University of Chicago) and Dr. Justin Kruger (New York University), who published their research in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology (membership required to access), we get it wrong 50% of the time. Those are the same odds as tossing a coin."

Sometimes I can't.

Some people express themselves better than others, and what is rude or sarcastinc in NYC (for example) is way different than in Nashville. Something may sound abrupt to me, and it be the sweetest post ever to a person in Detroit (for example)

I try to go with face value, but as you know sometimes come up with the wrong conclusion.

Working on it though

I see so many reading comprehension misunderstandings. Not from you APretty, but in general.
