People Who Missed The Joke By Light-years

Contrary to popular belief, a lot of folks are pretty clever. But sadly, there are just as many people who aggressively won't get the joke. As a general principle, when someone says something incomprehensibly dumb but it also has a whole bunch of likes or people responding with any form of "haha" then it's reasonable to assume that that thing they said is some kind of joke.

It is alarming how many people in this world have absolutely no sense of humor. One has to wonder what goes on in their heads when they watch a comedy on TV or when someone cracks a joke in the office or at school. Are they really that tone-deaf? I guess some people are. Regardless, being able to "read the room," so to speak, and understand that something is clearly meant to be a joke is apparently a skill that these folks seem to lack. You don't want to be the kind of person responding to a joke as if it's an assertion, or you just might become one of the many ranks of mockable people who desperately didn't get the joke.
