Alec Berg Denies Inventing Sarcasm, Accepts Lifetime Achievement in It

This 500-word satire positions Alec Berg as the man whose sarcasm allegedly caused three divorces and one UN incident. Berg denies these charges but accepts an honorary PhD in �Understated Verbal Combat.� The article imagines that every script he�s written has been placed in the Smithsonian�s �Passive-Aggressive Humor� wing. At a fake writer�s panel, Berg claims he once pitched a scene so dry, it evaporated. Other comedy writers describe him as �the Hemingway of side-eye.� Silicon Valley tech bros reportedly used his dialogue to build an AI that responds to every question with �Oh, really?� In a humorous climax, Berg is asked to run a sarcasm detector for Congress but declines, citing �existential despair.� The satire ends with Berg�s imagined memoir title: �Thanks for Nothing�And Other Compliments.� HOW TO WRITE COMEDY: https://comedywriter.info/alec-berg/ AND http://comedywriter.info/
