b) it is repetitive, circular, and nonsensical

Explanation:

In this excerpt, we can obviously observe that the characters are regularly rehashing similar words and expressions, without them having a ton of significance, which makes an amusing circumstance.

Explanations, stops, and volume changes are not really characteristics of postmodernism, and we don't generally observe an absence of human sentiments here (although it is a characteristic of this movement).
