I just took a political subject and inserted a joke that relied on a fairly low level of pop culture. Here are the assumptions I made about my audience that caused things to go wrong wrong.

1) They know what the capital of the United Arab Emirates is.
2) They were born before 1988.
3) They have the ability to detect irony in my voice, which is significantly less monotone than when I was 13.
4) They're not kind of dumb.

Anyways. Here's an actual snippet of REAL LIFE DIALOG I vocalized earlier today, posted completely out of context so as to sound that much cooler.

"Yeah, as soon as I finished explaining that story, I knew there was something interesting I'd left out. I eventually remembered that I have a picture of her disembodied head that I took when I was fifteen."
