A little late, but interesting nonetheless...

Okay, so I admit that I missed this, but it's an interesting experiment in social psychology - and one day left participate:

'Twinsult or Twomplement?' (From Cognitive Daily.)

Do you think so? Several of those statements I would interpret entirely differently depending on what had just been said previously, and who said them. I have a lot of sarcastic friends, but sometimes people do say sarcastic sounding things with complete sincerity, and you have to use the context to figure out their meaning. So I don't think that just listing 13 statements and asking people to rate them is all that useful whatsoever!

I think those 13 statements and the rating of them give a useful snapshot, but even on Twitter (not that I use it) there is often the context on an ongonig conversation of tweets between one user and another. What is being said, what has been said and who is saying it will all affect how you will interperate a particular statement.
