    You could tell they aren’t using the first line as a rhetorical device because their username is Leon?

      No, I could tell one person didn’t write the comment they were making a pronouncement about because the two comments had different usernames. I did assume it wasn’t one peson using two accounts, so my bad.

        OK. So how does that help with you knowing OP didn’t write it like that on purpose?

        See all those upvotes OP is getting? It means people understood why he wrote “devastated” because they read the entire comment. I think your heart was in the right place, but in the end your concern was completely unwarranted. It’s a shame you got downvoted just for caring about OP’s wellbeing :(

          I don’t get why all these questions and challenges are necessary - it was just a minor editorial criticism and then a reply to somebody claiming to know what the writer was thinking. Have it any way you guys want.
