I'd flip off the screen and be done with it.
I've consumed 4.5 liters of water today. It's kind of ridiculous.
We're not gonna die. We can't die, Bendis. You know why? Because we are so very pretty. We are just too pretty for God to let us die.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
Hard to tell without voice inflection. I might say it sincerely to someone.
ETA: What am I saying!?! I'm southern! No I wouldn't!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I'd cheerily reply "Yup!" That's "yes" but with tone, see.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

More potential info on the Colbert ice cream flavor.

One wrote back "Isn't that nice." Bitchy? Or no?
I would say bitchy, because right now I am developing a migraine from the funny smell, and the fire department is still here, nobody can figure out the door, and we sent a manager a change request and he sent it back marked up with a bunch of changes he didn't want us to make, so now I get to undo all the work I did yesterday. WTF, universe, WTF?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
This particular coworker is a tricky one -- sometimes bitchy, sometimes just deadpan. So hard to know!
Allyson, I have the cure for your Adrien Brody obsession if you want it.

I would default to a pleasant reply, but feel bitterly resentful inside, because sometimes I can't help being passive-aggressive.
Aaaaand now I smell smoke.

sounds a little bitchy, but I say give the benefit of the doubt.
