During my stay in London, my best friend often called me square, when I failed to react to refined grades of irony. Of an other colleague, he said: he is so square as to be octagonal..
Later I had a very bright young lady technician who had the knack of feigning irony-deafness - the surest way to make your quips fall flat. How would you call that?
