Are you his designated translator ?
Those statements seem pretty clear to me, and others.

1 edit | said by antiserious :said by javaMan :I believe he was being facetious. Are you his designated translator ? Those statements seem pretty clear to me, and others. Why would he need a translator? The statements stand on their own. However, it should be pretty obvious that statements in written form don't always carry the same irony or sarcasm that the same statement, if spoken, would convey. After all, that's why there are smileys. I may be wrong but I will stand by my interpretation just as I'm sure you will stand by yours; not that it is of any great importance in the grand scheme of things.

I see no smilies, do you ?

I couldn't agree more.
I will add that I have no issue with you voicing your opinion, and didn't intend to come off as contentious in your regard.
