It has come to my attention that some of you actually think I paid a plumber $2750 to fix a leak that only took 15 minutes and tried to shill this guy AI…..
I *did* have a plumber over to fix a leak… buuuut it took him multiple hours (not counting his travel time to come to my house at 8:30 in the morning), he did some checks on other stuff, and it only cost $300 (plus a $240 “diagnosis” fee, that part was real).
I also did NOT mention AI at all because I’m not a douche and it would be stupid.
You see, this is what some people call “satire.” Satire means “the use of humor, irony, exaggeration, or ridicule to expose and criticize people's stupidity or vices, particularly in the context of contemporary politics and other topical issues.”
What I’m doing here is creating a plausible but ultimately absurd situation. The plausibility is key, because the joke becomes even funnier when many people don’t realize it’s a joke.
I hope this is helpful. Jokes are always funnier when you explain them.
