Are we taking about the same comment? We’re taking about one that mentions an alarm, not an album.

And yes, I get that it rutina the fun to break down the logic too much, but you specifically complimented a style, and claimed the persona generally “had a gift” when there was no obVious style that made the comment funny, just the fact of the alarm being long obsolete for its intended purpose.
> Seemed like a pretty direct statement of the facts of their case
That's exactly what tickled me. He could have just said "My car keeps playing the same album when I adjust the console" but chose to focus on elements of the story that are vivid. He let the funny aspects of the situation shine through specifically _because_ he picked interesting elements to state directly.
Anyway, I don't like to pick apart what is humorous to me about something because it spoils the magic :)
