    Yeah, I’m pretty sure OP knows this - the title says it’s an escape character. What you’re describing is referred to as “escaping” the markdown.

    In a similar manner, OP wants to “escape” sarcasm, I guess? But that’s not really the purpose of the /s tag - it marks the end of sarcasm. Doing \s would imply that while the original meaning would be interpreted sarcastically, you’re not supposed to. Which also makes sense I guess, but people use /srs for similar reasons.
