Why?
I understand giving kudos in the context of "Dude, that was funny!" or "I agree!" or "This post makes a good point!" or even "I'm giving you kudos as a way of indicating that I have read your post" (which is kind of how I took a lot of your kudos, except that this would be a very inconsistent explanation of them) but giving kudos jokingly or sarcastically? That I just don't get.
Is the recipient supposed to know it's a joke??
It's just become my own personal way of dealing with some of the stuff that get's thrown my way here. I never used to do that, but when someone here started to tell me that the only reason any of the men on this forum even pretend to respect me is because I suck their dick (along with other things from other people on that same thread), I've kinda lost a little bit of my kindness and genuineness towards the people here that I had before.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
