Hold down the shift bar when hitting the 1 key. Don't put ones in with exclamation points, dude

Please explain the joke, because despite my many attempts, I just don't get it.

It's sarcasm, but I didn't want to put mind the sarcasm because I'm lazy so I just added ones with my exclamation marks

33- using ones with exclamation points is used to express sarcasm. The idea is you are so super excited about something that you accidentally add ones to a series of exclamation points because you are mashing the keys as you type.

Never heard of the 1's for sarcasm before.

Thank you 45. I always wondered how so many people did that without wanting to fix it.

Or if you're on mobile you could always just hold the exclamation a bit longer to get ¡ But I think the ones suit sarcasm better.

I am sure it was a large textured body pillow. That's what my daughter asked for.

I wonder why they called you that. Everyone deserves a nice pillow. Don't be offended OP, just overlook them.

FYL how hard is it to spend $20 on a pillow for someones birthday. They are the selfish assholes.

Where are you spending $20 on a single pillow? You're paying too much for your stuff.

I mean, I have a body pillow in my dorm that was 15 and then another 10 for the cover. And even still, 20 isn't a lot for a birthday gift, especially if it's something practical.

That seems unfair OP. I can understand if you just got new ones before hand. But it sounds like that's not the case. Also there is a loop hole, ask for just plain cash for your birthday and buy yourself a pillow. Or maybe some gift cards to places like Target or Bed Bath And Beyond.

You spoiled youngsters wanting soft pillows and such. Back in my day we used rocks for pillows and used animals as blankets.
