Not nearly self-aware enough, if you were to go around saying such things to people in person. What a shocking insult, to tell someone their very voice sounds unhuman! I can't say you should never, of course, but I would hope very much you reserve such calumny only for when it has been thoroughly earned.

But of course this is only a website, where there are in any case no drinks of any sort to go flying for any reason, and where such an ill-considered thing to say can receive a more reasoned response like this, instead.

Is this an AI response? Serious question. They’re taking a website comment a bit personally and threatening throwing drinks in peoples faces.

  • You're worried about me actually throwing a drink - 'threatening?' Really. - and I'm taking things too seriously? This is a website!

    It is, though, interesting to me that you see someone behave in a way you aren't expecting and don't quite know how to wrap your head around - no blame; it's a relatively common experience in my vicinity, though normal people typically enjoy it much more than those here - and your immediate recourse is to assume it must have been generated by AI. That's interesting indeed, and I greatly appreciate you sharing it.

    • The account is from 2016 maybe this is a real person.

      But you sound self important and a bit unhinged. It’s not that no one here can wrap their heads around such behaviour. It’s that your comments sounds like a troll response but could also be real.

Coming to a forum and pretending that you commit crimes when people insult you is a stereotype of a generic fake internet personality that is incredibly prevalent to the point of being boring.

Was this intentional sarcasm?

  • So boring you just couldn't help yourself, eh?

    But no, I've meant every word I wrote this evening here, just as I do every other word I say or write, ever. Sometimes those words are sarcastic! In such cases there is rarely any doubt.
