/s stands for sarcasm, which is what I think you wanted to say.
Because its really hard to expect anyone to understand if you are joking or not in text form.

ok, I can't keep stringing you along because I feel like you're literally not getting the sarcasm.
yes, it was sarcasm.
no, I didn't forget it.
still don't understand? read the meme.
You need to be clear with things like this.
I am literally unable to understand sarcasm.
I understand. I don't agree, but I understand.
How did you know that it was supposed to be sarcastic, then? You said they forgot the /s. How were you able to identify sarcasm if you can't understand it?
You can infer sarcasm by context. Some of the best sarcasm has no change in tone; this is called "dry" sarcasm and is common in Britain, for example.
