That's what i suspected! I'm just kinda bad at reading tone sometimes

I'm with you there. The ability to read tone and I are acquaintances but we never got close enough to become friends.

What I did is a pretty classic jaded autist joke - so often autistic people just take so many knocks with being misinterpreted that they can go a little bit jonkler mode about it so when they see something that can be wildly misinterpreted they sometimes do so just as a kind of deep satire, like saying "This whole over-interpretation of meaning thing sucks and there's nothing I can do about it but at least I can laugh at it sometimes by misinterpreting someone else's statement to mean something outrageous as a little in-joke to myself, if nothing more"

I understand that! I think that's a nice way to describe it.
