I think a factor is that it's text so for example emotions (that would normally be conveyed through intonation) are lost
Also we're strangers, that might also be a factor, even though I'm still not sure what exactly the joke was. It all felt kinda belittling, but now it seems like that wasn't the intention
I wasn't offended, I was just confused why you'd be this "hostile" (which I now know you weren't meaning to be and it was just a misunderstanding) for no reason.
