A truly amazing sight: An average Lemmy user discovers that they can't tell when someone on Twitter is making an obvious joke

[-] Draedron@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 7 months ago

Its just a bad joke since HP is not set in america so the joke doesnt even make sense

[-] poppy@lemm.ee 0 points 7 months ago

That’s what makes it funnier, at least to me. 🤷‍♀️

[-] Kusimulkku@lemm.ee -1 points 7 months ago

I think that's part of the joke

[-] Honytawk@lemmy.zip 1 points 7 months ago

The joke would only hit with Americans because of it.

[-] Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 1 points 7 months ago

It's two jokes. The one abut not knowing about current events of the time and the one about making the first joke in a silly way. Could've made it clearer with using a sillier example.

Or they're just oblivious. But I think it was intentional.

I guess an average Lemmy user can't tell when someone on Lemmy is making an obvious joke either

[-] Honytawk@lemmy.zip 2 points 7 months ago

Too many of them are not joking though
