So it seems that some of you have yet to become acquainted with the “bastard step child of irony”. From reactions across Facebook, Twitter and dare I say it, even the blogs of OrangeCountyConcepts.com it has become very apparent that some of you JUST DON’T GET IT. After coming to this conclusion I said to myself, “Meagan, you have yet to do your good deed of the day. And this deed has the potential to help more than just one poor soul, it can help many!” So here it is, kiddies:
The technical definition from Miriam-Webster Dictionary:
- a sharp and often satirical or ironic utterance designed to cut or give pain
- a mode of satirical wit depending for its effect on bitter, caustic, and often ironic language that is usually directed against an individual
- the use or language of sarcasm
Made easier to understand by Urban Dictionary: (Just in case you had to look up any of the words in the previous definition.)
- Your body’s natural defense against stupid.
- Noun. A very British form of humor which derives laughs from saying something while really meaning something else. Often (though not always, contrary to popular belief) used in scathing remarks. The word ‘Sarcasm’ is derived from a Greek word meaning ‘tearing flesh’.
- Gift for intelligent, ability to compose messages which questions another’s intellect.
- To say the opposite of what is obvious.
- With the use of it any word can be turned into a fuck you statement with undertones of absolute contempt.
- The only language I speak.
I can only hope that this will aide the unfortunate individuals who have been left behind when entering a conversation filled with sarcastic remarks, those who attempt to retort the users of sarcasm with nonsensical bullshit and also those who choose to comment on Facebook, Twitter and the blogs of OrangeCountyC0ncepts.com.
Keep it classy, kids.
