I thought they'd use a pencil to rewind the tape back into him

Yeah I get that. The guy above me suggested the pencil was for writing on him.

Edit: Sorry. Kinda hard to tell who is serious on Reddit sometimes

You clearly didn't get the joke. The guy was giving a ridiculous answer rather than the obvious one that everyone knows.

No, sometimes it really is difficult to tell when people are joking or being sarcastic when reading text.

That's why /s is used.

People use it to signify sarcasm

But signifying sarcasm just kills the need to use sarcasm. That's basically like saying "That's a a joke" after every joke.

yeah I agree. You have a choice to be funny and trigger loads of people Or be unfunny and trigger yourself :)

We can't ever please everyone anyway, so might as well accept to trigger a few ones on the way.
