Sarcasm is damn near impossible to pick up over text unless it's extremely obvious.

If it's extremely subtle sarcasm yes. I agree. There was nothing subtle about my post though

I agree, but I've done the same thing before and people have totally taken it seriously.

That doesn't mean it's extremely hard to pick up on obvious sarcasm. It just means some people are morons lol.
