A citation for what?
A fictional, hypothetical and facetiously derived animal??????
LOL
I made up the animal "Nepali Ghost Snow Monkey" to illustrate the
stupid things we spent billions of dollars on, so why not spend a
little more on something that was WORTH it, instead of stupid things
"LIKE" the "Nepali Ghost Snow Monkey."
God DAMN you literal liberals are so fucking gullible.

I've got more than you, brainless.
I know enough about animals, to where I'd recognize a "faked" animal.
LOL...

Facetious is an adjective used to describe speech or writing that is
meant to be humorous or playful, often in an inappropriate or flippant
manner, particularly when dealing with serious issues. It implies a
joking tone that is sometimes deployed at the wrong time or in poor
taste.
Etymology and Core Meaning
The word "facetious" has a rich Latin root that helps explain its
meaning:
It derives from the Latin word facetia, meaning "jest," "witticism," or
"waggery."
The literal meaning of "facetious" is "given to jesting" or "waggish."
At its core, facetious describes something intended to provoke
laughter, but it carries a few key nuances that distinguish it from
simple humor:
Inappropriateness or Frivolity: The humor is typically characterized by
a lack of seriousness or a refusal to treat a subject with the gravity
it deserves. A person being facetious is often flippant or treating a
solemn matter lightly.
Contextual Misjudgment: The facetious remark or action is usually ill-
timed or directed at an unsuitable topic. For instance, making a
facetious remark during a serious board meeting or a eulogy would be
considered inappropriate.
Wry, Teasing Tone: It often suggests a dry, ironic, or slightly mocking
tone. The speaker isn't necessarily trying to be cruel, but rather is
employing humor to avoid sincerity or confront difficult emotions.
Examples in Use
If a doctor gives a patient a grim diagnosis and the patient responds
with a quick, nervous joke, the remark would be facetious.
An essay written about a national tragedy might be criticized as
facetious if it uses irony and humor that diminishes the event's
importance.
In short, while all facetious statements are humorous, not all humorous
statements are facetious. "Facetious" implies the humor is lightweight,
slightly mocking, and often inappropriate for the surrounding
circumstances.
