That awkward moment when someone takes your sarcasm seriously.
This has happened to me twice recently, with the same person! Once it resulted in a, "Thank you!" -- that was not compliment, doofus.
The second time I was answered with, "Great! See you at 7!" -- ummm, I'd rather poke my eyes out with sharp sticks than go to that event. Do you know me at all?
Not-so-subtle subtleties are lost on some people.
