Lololol. Yeah I literally said that this happens to me on my interview thread.

A friend I used to hang out with in my school days was some pretty good competition for my dry humor and sarcasm.
He and I would play off each other until we had it down to a fine art, lol.
Only we really knew when the other was really being serious or not, haha.
Pretty sure he was a sociopath.
So that might make things easier in that way, idk...lol.
I got broken up with once because the girl thought I was being serious when I was just being sarcastic (in a totally complementary way even!)...apparently some humans in the world miss it entirely(?)...she was crazy anyhow and was like all religious and stuff...so yeah, that was strange.
I feel you!

Edit - Still better than when I broke up with that other girl and she threw up.

Greenland Ice Core Platinum Suggests Meteor Strike Wiped Out Clovis Early Humans
August 2, 2013
Elaine Radford
New data from Greenland ice cores containing platinum strongly suggest that a meteor hit earth around 12,900 years ago — resulting in the extinction of the North American Clovis people and multiple animal species.

A theory has been floating around for awhile that the 1,200 years-long ice age called the Younger Dryas ice age may have been sparked almost 13,000 years ago when a large meteor or asteroid hit the earth. The sudden climate change resulted in the extinction of most of North America’s large megafauna including mammoths, rhinoceros species, and even the native human people known as the Clovis.

However, there has been little evidence for the theory.

But a new study published in late July by the Proceedings For The National Academy Of Sciences said that Harvard University researchers have discovered a 100-fold spike in platinum in cores collected in Greenland from ice that is around 12,890 years old. The platinum-rich layer is believed to have fallen from space.

And that means it could have come from a killer meteor.

i think that until relatively recently we were told that catal hoyuk in turkey represented the oldest city on earth but then they found gobekli tepi which has pushed back civilisation to 14,000 years ago

I think that many geologists are now speaking about the idea of there being a big event about 11-12,000 years ago such as a meteorite strike that then led to changing sea levels that may have caught civilisation of its guard

Could that be enough to set back civilisation?

mainstream history says that the minoan civilisation of crete was set back by a tsunami from the santorini volcano so why couldn't an older civilisation have been also wiped out?

Archaeologists may find an example of this in the black sea. If "THE BLACK SEA DELUGE" hypothesis turns out to be correct, this may very well have happened to any civilization living in what is today the bottom of the Black Sea.
