Haha, I'm Sorry received generally positive reviews from music critics. Craig Jenkins of Beats Per Minute compared Kitty's confessional lyricism to "social media oversharing," and said the extended play "aptly conveys the shock of a life thrown jarringly off its track where our subject inexplicably finds herself hobnobbing with people she’d only ever read about." Jenkins complimented Beautiful Lou's production, comparing it to that of Clams Casino, described Kitty's vocals as breathy and said the tracks “Smiledog.jpg” and “Okay Cupid” had a dreamlike quality. He also complimented Riff Raff's guest appearance and Kitty's "double-time flow" on the Carly Rae Jepsen redux, "Give Me Scabies".^[8] Lindsay Zoladz of Pitchfork Media described Kitty's flow on the EP as "creaky-voiced" and said Pryde's music "captures something human and disarmingly honest about longing in the hyper-connected disconnect of the digital world." Zoladz criticized the track "Smiledog.jpg", describing it as "a missed opportunity to do something more than just show up and grin." She compared Haha, I'm Sorry to Why?'s 2003 album, Oaklandazulasylum.^[1] Jody Rosen of Rolling Stone compared Kitty to Taylor Swift, saying they are both "whip-smart young [women] from the suburbs with a gift for pouring [their] loves and loathings into sharp, catchy songs."^[9]
