The same as when political satire is indistinguishable from actual politics. It means that the real things has sort of become a joke itself.

I can agree that most modern web design is bad. I can also agree that the web design on tonsky's site is bad, but OK, I acknowledge that it is intentionally bad; so bad that it's unreadable. I had myself a chuckle now, and next time I see a link to tonsky's site, I'll click on it, chuckle, and immediately leave.

If you don't have reader mode, get a new browser. Don't tell him to make it boring for all the rest of us who behave normally.
2. I don't think it's a very good joke to post long-form content on your blog with the expectation that it's basically unreadable without a reader mode.
> The fact that people seem to take it seriously says something about the contemporary state of webdesign :)
Mind expanding and what it says exactly about contemporary web design?
Whether I take it seriously or not doesn't change the fact that it's still damn hard to read anything.
