Isn't that just the perfect alibi? Everytime I say something stupid, ignorant or inaccurate I can follow with "It was all a joke". For example:
A: Did you know that italian people love pizza so much they named some regions after the pizza?
*awkward silence*
B: You know that it is the other way around don't you?
A: *after a long pause, pretending he is not retarded* Of course, that is part of the joke.
It may be a joke after all, but not clever enough to tell it wasn't just a dumb mistake.
Satan said:
"You are for ever angry, all you care about is intelligence, but I repeat again that I would give away all this superstellar life, all the ranks and honours, simply to be transformed into the soul of a merchant's wife weighing eighteen stone and set candles at God's shrine."
