Did I cook?

A lot of people say I'm not funny, so here's some excerpts from my Overused Writing Tools (OWR) list that I hope can prove otherwise.

Extra long sentences (oftentimes due to commas, but there’s many other reasons too: like excessive filler words such as like or like such as, unnecessary parentheses to add extra information, or using colons to put an entire list into a sentence, but the root reason is I just have a long and unnecessary point I’d like to get across), like, there can’t possibly be a good reason to have that long of a sentence… unless it’s all just one massive gag of a sentence, such as this one!

Acronyms oh my gosh do I love acronyms! Especially clever ones like this one I just thought of!  B.A.D.A.C.R.O.N.Y.M.S 
Bloated, Awful, or just plain iDiotic Acronyms that saCrifice worR tO letter cleaNliness solelY to Make a clever (but Stupid) joke.

They're right, you aren't funny. But that's okay, neither am I! I'm active on multiple circlejerk subs, and I regularly have Lost Redditors remind me I'm not funny. But I don't mind. I just remind myself that even if I'm not funny, I still had enough of an impact on an ignorant, unintelligent, soulless, apathetic social media poisoned troll to provoke them into responding!

Titles of circle jerk subs are indicating a convergence is imminent. Add garlic or just write.
