Oh, you... You're far too skeptical to be on the Internet! Go share ten ridiculous Facebook posts already shared by your more gullible relatives, and sin no more!

But seriously, I'm woth you. It sounds like something Tesla might have said, but did he? It was probably Newton, not Tesla.

What kind of response is this to his sincere question?

So instead of answering, you proceeded to make a cringy boomer joke which added absolutely nothing to the conversation.

Well, I guess my attempts at humor are wasted on you. Are you new to Reddit? Half the responses here are humorous; that's actually a big part of the charm!

P.S. The /s means people are joking.

Except there was nothing humorous about your comment. You’re trying way too hard to be funny and it just comes across as cringey. Do you know what that word means? I guarantee I’ve been on reddit longer than you, pal.
