## Papers

1. **[Are you serious?: Rhetorical Questions and Sarcasm in Social Media Dialog](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/docs/papers/oraby-2017-are-you-serious-rhetorical-questions/)** *(2017)* Rhetorical questions (questions not meant to get an answer) are collected with an intent-based heuristic: a question in the middle of a turn that the same speaker answers at once, without giving up the turn.
