Yea, sarcasm works really great in comments, especially when you can't even have a tone of voice.

Huh....If hearing sarcasm make you clever ....Then I should stop being sarcastic to my enemies???

I personally feel we all get sarcastic from time to time. The way I see it is, often it is our ego taking control of us and sometimes our feeling of needing to feel more confident and superior can make us sarcastic.

Well holy shit isn't that a surprise

It's not that sarcastic people are smart. Smart people are sarcastic.

Also, I find some of the most brilliant people on the planet are NOT sarcastic at all, but are very straightforward. And the ones who have the highest intellectual accomplishments don't seem to be typically sarcastic, possibly because they are very self-assured and don't have anything to prove.

What if this whole video was just sarcasm?

Remember kids always practice safe sarcasm

I used to be really sarcastic from my h.s. years until my mid-20s. My quips were razor sharp, but I found in my adult life too many people didn't get it, were hurt or were offended. So, I stopped verbalizing my sarcasm. But every so often, I find a sarcastic quip on the tip of my tongue ready to make a comeback.

I love sarcasm. I just wish more people understood irony punctuation and humor emotes.

"My, you like so nice today."
"Thank you."
"I was being sarcastic."
"So was I."

Are Sarcastic People Smarter? If you had half a brain at all, you wouldn't need to ask the question in the first place. How's that for an answer?

Sarcastic expressions are only pleasant in a wholehearted relationship.

Sarcasm is the absolute HIGHEST form of wit.

I credit “Mad Magazine” for my sarcasm, early teenager in the 60’s, purchased every Mad Magazine on the release day, read cover to cover from page one to the end. I actually found it to stimulate thinking and question my surroundings. I use to love when they would satire a popular movie or tv show, always made me think a little less seriously about things which really didn’t matter.

I must be the next Albert Einstein if this is true

When practicing safe sarcasm, it is always recommended to use contraceptives such as 3rd dergree burn-moisturizing cream, spreading it twice a day over the lower-end of the butt hurt person, for at least 3 days after the fact.
