Yeah…
Having previously mentioned the great divide between these two groups, it is usually the gullible who don’t understand when they are being presented with satire (rather than the skeptical), so it is we - the skeptical - who readily chuckle at satire - all the while realizing that in order for something (ie. humor) to be funny, there must be at least a kernel (though often: a bushel) of truth found within it.

Re: Wade had better batten down the hatches.
I suspect it depends on the side you choose…

Some are completely disingenuous, and – as pretty much an in-your-face type of thing – will inevitably demand extra crispy.
