Noun: sarcasm saarkazum
Witty language used to convey insults or scorn
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
U may find this a very strange topic 4 a blog. The motivation comes from an argument i had recently with a cousin of mine. My scorn irritated her to such an extent that she ended up declaring sarcasm as the worst word in the english language. That got me thinking about this powerful weapon in our speech.
Sarcasm is the best way of irritating, tormenting and frustrating ur opponents in a duel of words without uttering a single word that wud be considered obscene and abusive in a court of law. The excruciating harassment ur opponents endure gives u a sort of perverse n demented pleasure. This is particularly true if ur adversary is not gifted with this weapon in his arsenal. U can drive him to the limits of his patience, push him towards the border of the sane n insane, n subject him to such mental trauma tat the only way he can respond is thru physical violence(then it will take ur best scooting skills to emerge unscathed).
More enjoyable than subjecting a person to an assault of sarcasm is in being a third-party listening to such an argument. Then u ll realize tat sarcasm is allegorical. Things meant r not literally but figurative. U ve to dive deep to grasp the true meanings most of which ll make u laugh ur heads off.
The bad part is wen ur antagonist is better equipped in using this weapon than u. Sense(read as law) of humor requires u take a joke on urself as gayly as u make joke on others. Similarly the Law of sarcasm requires u to accept scorn on u as sportingly as u scorn others. But abiding the law is always the difficult part n so the best strategy ll be to "run like the wind".
