I'm always about attempted cleverness. However this is usually because either my audience don't understand why what I said was clever or because it was purposefully cheesy (I really do love puns). But there is a right balance to wit that I like to maintain, too much is too much like when I'm borderline schizophrenic off of a tall coffee.
Just recently I was at a "Beer Olympics" that some old mates were holding so I decided to visit, say hello, drink shit beer, and watch people get drunk. Anyways, I was standing there with a friend's girlfriend and her friend and we took notice of the beer pong team that were all dressed in over the top retro 70's sports clothing (headbands, fake mustaches, close fitting gym clothing, etc). Olympics... get it? Anyways I mentioned how I find so much college irony annoying and the girls freak out and say "I don't see what's ironic about that" and "define 'irony'." Feeling like I've made myself look too elitist for the scene, I changed the subject. But what the fuck?
