I just assumed it was forced enough that the /s wasn't necessary....
You know, I thought this might be the case, but without the /s it's a flip: is this person being very sarcastic, or are they very stupid?
There's a lot of people who are very stupid, so that's usually the assumption I revert to, when in doubt. I'm one that believes the /s is required for this reason.
In an age where headlines from The Onion are more believable than some actual headlines, omitting the /s was my bad.
