Lololol

I have taken to putting a sarcasm alert on FB posts anymore, since I have set people off but putting sarcastic posts on political memes and being attacked by the people who should have been most amused, at least I thought so. Even people I know, who should know better have been confused. Is this a sign of great sarcasm or just not knowing my audience?

Pretty much, but usually I end up patiently explaining things to people so I don't look like a d-ck.

Now, around my snarky family and friends, not so much.

Pull My Finger !

Hah! I'm doing my part.

Wow, I wish I could speak sarcasm.

Sarcasm is the work of the Devil. (he said sarcastically)

Yes and yes.

I too have been called out for sarcasm. I view the world through a jaded lens and often find humor where others don't. I have had to grow a thick skin to deflect the stones thrown my way by those who appear to take themselves and the world much too seriously. That being said, parody,lends itself better to the written word than sarcasm does. Above all, don't give up your own sense of humor. This even seems a bit too serious...I shall now stick my head back up my butt hole and revel in some more familiar scents.

Some people can't handle my sarcasm. They take offense.

I think it is more just that sarcasm doesn't really come across well, when using just text. Without vocal intonations and facial expressions, sarcasm really doesn't work well in a text format unless the person reading has known you for a long time and would know when you are being sarcastic because they know you so well.

Perhaps you too shoudl obby for there beign video chat added when they add the chat feature on this site. Sarcasm woudl work so much better in tht kind of forum.

Well, I like to think I have enough for a small group. And if that's not enough, most of the voices in my head can be pretty snarky at well. But I like to keep most of them sedated: vodka. Otherwise they'd be up in my grill arguing all night long.

Ask me if I care! lol

Can I handle sarcasm? No no, of course not. Like I'm not even sarcastic at all. Look at me not handling sarcasm over here. Pffffttt

yes love a bit of sarcasm

I spent my formative years in the rural South in the early 1950s where sarcasm was virtually unknown. People were direct, and simple and sincere. When my Dad got a job in the aero-space industry and we moved to the big (not) city, I was thrown in with fast-talking Yankee types who were fully fluent in Sarcasm. It suited my, by then, teenage smartassity, so I ran with it, but I have always found it to be a second language, which takes extra processing energy, and I can easily miss the cues. Now that I have retired back to the country life, I find that many of my neighbors who never left the farm still speak in disarmingly earnest tones. It may just be laziness on my part but it is comforting to be back among people who just say what they mean; no translation required.

Folks who can't pick up on sarcasm without emoji help or explanation are among the socially challenged and haven't much of a future in this world.

Are you kidding?! I come from a family of 7 kids and bantering and sarcasm were how we showed we cared. That left me for a while but it has recently resurfaced with a friend who I work with a lot. We are like Laurel and Hardy (I'm, Laurel and he's Hardy). I have found that bantering/sarcasm are in my blood and we often put on a show for others. Once were told we should do a skit. He said yes and call it the Jack and nick show and I replied "I see I get top billing".

They say sarcasm is the lowest form of wit...to which the best reply is ......I suit my humour to the company I keep

Sarcasm orgasm!

What? Sarcasm. Who the hell is sarcastic anymore? These days being contrary is the in thing.

@Silvereyes I have a sarcastic sense of humor as well. No problem.

I am very sarcastic, and always enjoy when it is returned

I enjoy sarcasm, and every form of wit. I write poetry, and I find that there is very little satirical poetry around. Everyone is obsessed by their own serious issues. Yawn.
