If we're going to punctuate our obvious sarcasm with that beetling proverbial mark can't we at least start doing /r instead, just to spite Reddit and restore a modicum of balance in this heat?

They are. There is no need for that /s.

edit: if you have to explain sarcasm with an /s, it is no sarcasm anymore
