The only contextually available subject was the previous quote (the assumed subject of your previous sentence) and {mi}, the habitual subject of your lb comments (a larger context, to be sure). And. of course, you are a wet computer, among other things (you seem to get caught up in being an example, also -- weren't you an event a couple weeks ago?) If you want to bring your computer in, I fear you have to be a bit more explicit, e.g., {lemi skami cu cilmo}, almost as compact -- and genuinely clear -- including that it is hyperbole, and funny.
