No; to a certain extent, GPT-3's job is: "Make a text that looks like one you might actually find floating around the internet."
What's not clear to me, even from this thread, is what exactly they were expecting it to do instead.
It sounds like they were expecting it to say something like, "...but that turned out to be a bad idea, because the cigarette dissolved and then it tasted like cheap tobacco and paper."
But honestly, is that the most likely thing you'd find on the internet? Nobody goes a random direction like "I decided to stir my lemonade with a cigarette" and then plays it totally mundane. If you writing goes in an absurd direction, it continues to go that way. I don't think this particular example shows anything one way or another.
The bit about buying the shirt was obviously nonsense though.
