Is it actually possible to tell someone that something was a joke without sounding condescending?

@mightyspaceman If they’re upset or about to do something misguided because they didn’t understand the jokeness, it’s worth explaining. Otherwise, maybe not.

@mightyspaceman I vote no, because it's not up to the source of the statement to decide if that statement is a joke. That's for the audience to decide.
