    Can we invent the word “sadire”?

    It’s when you think something is satire at first glance but then change your mind and become sad…

      Sad because it’s friggin’ dire if they can’t even spell “liberty,” or “tyranny…”

        I’m gonna make a slight modification if you don’t mind:

        Sadire - something at first confused for satire but is actually just sad and raises your ire.

          I second this! That makes two of us, so “sadire” as “post-satire sad ire” is officially coined and everyone else who doesn’t know this is lame!

            Genuinely pleased to have coined a new word with you. Good stuff. Thanks. Personally though I think we should give it a week or two to let the dictionaries and LLM’s catch up before we start pointing the “lame-finger” in anyone’s direction…
