Imagine that someone tells you: "Oh sure, you're definitely the best driver in the world!" How would you react?

Select an answer:

I will smile and say something funny at my own expense. I will take it seriously and start explaining what kind of driver I really am. I'll joke back and add even more irony. I don't know if he's serious about it, so I'd rather not react. I thank you and will take it as a compliment.

When you see someone trying to be funny but their humor is awkward, what do you think?

Select an answer:

I appreciate the effort, even though I am not laughing. I hope he is not aware of it himself, otherwise it would be even worse. I would rather laugh so that he doesn't feel bad. I feel uncomfortable, but I don't want to be rude. I enjoy it – awkward moments have their charm.

How would you react if you were joking and someone corrected you completely seriously?

Select an answer:

I continue with irony to see when it will dawn on him. I will think about whether I told the joke correctly. I'll tell him I'm just joking and change the subject. I'll try to switch to softer humor so I don't lose it. I'll leave it at that; obviously, we don't have the same sense of humor.

A friend tells you: "Great, you definitely did it perfectly!" How do you understand it?

Select an answer:

As a compliment, if I don't sense sarcasm in the tone. As a mockery, I probably didn't succeed. As a challenge, to check if it was really good. As a test, to see if I can recognize his tone of voice. As a common note, I don't think about it.

How do you feel when someone uses very dry sarcasm that is almost indistinguishable?

Select an answer:

I enjoy it, but I have to stay alert. Sometimes I'm not sure if it's still a joke or reality. It can be fun, but sometimes it comes across as arrogant. I’d rather avoid such people, it’s exhausting. I consider it the epitome of intelligent humor.

If you had to choose between classic humor and sarcasm, which one would you pick?

Select an answer:

Sarcasm, I love word play. Classic humor, sometimes the sarcasm is too harsh. The combination of both, everything depends on the situation. It depends on the people - not everyone understands irony. I don't know, humor is a subjective matter.

Imagine that someone humorously says, "Well, you're definitely the best singer I’ve ever heard!" What will you do?

Select an answer:

I will intentionally start singing even more off-key. I will laugh and say thank you for the support. I will take it seriously and ask myself if I am really that bad. I'll return the favor with a similar joke. I don't know, maybe he meant it sincerely.

How do you perceive people who dislike irony and sarcasm?

Select an answer:

I understand them, not everyone likes it. I feel a bit sorry for them; they are missing out on a lot. Sometimes I deliberately test them to see if they notice. I am trying to adapt to them and I am using different humor. I prefer not to talk to them about jokes.

If you had to explain irony to someone who doesn't understand it, how would you do it?

Select an answer:

I'll give him an example and observe his reaction. I probably wouldn't even attempt it. I will try to explain it to him logically, but simply. I will use something from his life so that he understands it. I'll let him figure it out himself – that's the point of irony.

What is your attitude towards black humor?

Select an answer:

I like him, but in moderation. I often find him too harsh. It is genius when it is done well. It depends on the company I am in. It can be funny, but it’s not always appropriate.
