I don't think sic applies here, you're looking for "/s" to denote that the preceding is sarcastic. Sic generally denotes that the phrasing/spelling/words is not altered or is verbatim.
oh crap. I thought sic meant sarcastic nad I have thought that for years. now im looking it up.
I love you lol
no seriously I have been going around thinking it meant sarcasm intended something. The worst part is im used to academic papers from long ago and I think now I remember its usage but someone got it goofed up in the internet age.
The internet makes us stupid. Something Awful got that right.
Now I love you even more, holy shit!! 🤣
I think you're thinking of sike, which was common slang in the 90s. https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=sike
Going back to the 1990s, I'm pretty sure we all spelled it "psych," just the same as in the similar expression "psych out." That said, I have no doubt there were different spellings in different places.
Unfortunately, we all did not spell it that way. It was misspelled so often that "sike" became the common spelling. I don't think most people knew the origins of the term.
Obviously "Not!" followed bacause people were unsure how to spell that word.
Not!
No I was thinking internet slang. honestly I remember sike as more an 80's thing but the decades. they begin to blur. my brain does things like confusing sic and /s so its a pretty normal thing for me. hopefully i remember it right in future but one thing that is annoying for me is if I learn something, even on my own, badly. I tend to have a hard time not doing it wrong.
The only sic this guy needs is sic semper tyrannis.
