PAA:
You didn’t provide definitions. So, what exactly is the meaning of “triplical?” [It had better not be on a Wiktionary page for “triple,” “tripartite,” “threefold,” or “triplicate” {maybe I shouldn’t mention them… but whatever].)
“Ingraining” would seem to do for whatever “ingraination” means.
“Sarcasticon” is a nice, fun neologism, and its meaning,
“an emoticon indicating sarcasm,” is readily discernible. 🙂
(It’s also, randomly enough, the the name of a short-lived Australian black metal band [2002-3], a Twitter account with a mere 75 posts [2009-2013] , and a blog with a grand total of 10 posts [2007, 2009-10], but I don’t think any of them intended your meaning.)
Because I wasn’t aware of them, here are some sarcasticons I found:
:s (or, according to Wikipedia, this is for “grimface” [added later, PAA!])
:s)
;s
[Given the previous 3, presumably ;s) ]
:-7 [Tongue-in-cheek]
(^o) [A raised eyebrow]
“conversified”
I do think that it is true that one side can honestly perceive the other side as being an economic burden and this can not necessarily be conversified.
What would have been the problem with “the converse is not necessarily so?”

The potential sarcasm was that you need an excuse to justify reading Halachic Man
So, Writersoul downplays her achievement – reading Halakhic Man – and you respond, sarcastically, that her statement is not a valid excuse – the true, opposite meaning being that her statement does not in fact lessen her achievement – is this correct?
but I left it up to the reader's interpretation.
What was the potential non-sarcastic meaning? You had just given a compliment for the achievement, making it difficult to interpret as sincere a statement about needing an excuse for it.
Also my line contained a reference to a different thread, which you might not have gotten.
Or maybe I just didn’t see that thread. Contrary to what somebody seems to believe, I am not a walking index of the CR. But given how short that line is, and the hint…
That’s right, I didn’t read much of that thread, and so I didn’t see your conversation, or this:
In general I troll around in the background when it comes to CR but for this question I specifically registered to post a reply.
I think you might accept the fact that I didn’t say anything about that as proof that I didn’t see it at the time. Something tells me Dee50 hadn’t been in the background for too long… 🙂
Let’s try your ability to get references:

By the way, there are now five threads with my name in the title,[...] three of which were changed by the Moderator(s)
Yes, I’d noticed the trend.
P.S. This took forever to research and write – hope you enjoy it.
