Humor is subjective and has nothing to do with reading comprehension. Let me quote the last line of your message, which you claim to be the part of your message which places it in humorous context when read: "I don't know what I'm talking about. I hope he gets better, though." Reading that, then re-reading your message doesn't make it funny. It sounds like someone who threw up a half-concocted guess about D's health, admitted they knew nothing, then wished him well. If you thought that was funny, I don't think anyone agreed with you.

You mean assuming, as I did, that he possibly didn't read the last sentence of your message, but after reading 95% of your message.

Sure, it's calling writing choices. Put the punchline with the joke, not as a separate sentence.

Nah, actually I think cats play themselves by not being clearer when they write, because apparently no one here, even the people that read your whole message, took that as a joke.
