I really need to work on my irony. I've just had two people I thought fairly well of unfollow me because they thought I was serious.
@BashStKid Heh. You're so right! Those "good parties" that I know so much about because I TOTALLY get invited to them all the time! Nudge nudge know what I mean?
*weeps brokenly*
@pieist Well, I guess the alternative is extending the Voight-Kampff test to include detecting irony, which would probably see a lot of people having a bad conversation with a blade runner shortly afterwards.
Well the only reasonable response to the tortoise story is "you tell me, this is your story, I'm just the listener". I mean it must be a test for your ability to detect when someone is a wanker and should be side-eyed the whole time.
@pieist They probably think everything is serious, and never get invited to good parties.
