can someone explain what it means when someone encases a word in slashes like /this/? I've seen it a few times but was never 100% sure what it means

Sarcasm sometimes, or emphasis.
Imagine those words being italicized.
They do it that way because <i> and [i:lit] don't work on this site, but do on many others.

previous anons nailed it
an exception to this being /news/, /toy/, /trash/ and the like, which are references to
>>>/news/

>>>/trash/
