# Like a madman ... is the one who deceives ... telling a joke?"

Both the madman and the deceiver hurt people but do not take responsibility for it.

# Was I not telling a joke?

I was only telling a joke." (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-rquestion]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-explicit]])
