Isn't sarcasm always a form of flaming/trolling?
why is it permitted on this forum?
Sarcasm only tries to humiliate the other poster. People who use it doesn't want to discuss (anymore).

Oh yes, sarcasm is evil, and has no purpose. While we're at it, ban smilies, post counts and avatars. Oh, and don;t forget to ban posting, you might hurt someone's feelings.

Has anyone ever seen this:

Due to the noted difficulty of expressing sarcasm in the written word, New Zealand is beginning to see an increase in the use of the PSIs (Parish Sarcasm Indicators) "// \\" to highlight a passage of text intended to be read as sarcasm. The following excerpt indicates how they would be used in written correspondence. I have read your proposal, //it's so amazingly original I'm going to invest all of my money in it.\\

I like the idea

 

[azzaman333]

Don't do it. It's fun to see people misread what is/isn't sarcasm!

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

Hmm. Good point.

 

[Tee Kay]

I love sarcasm, inside of and outside of in this forum and beyond!

 

[Taliesin]

I enjoy verbal irony as a means of self-deprecation.

That sounded dirty, for some reason.

 

[Erik Mesoy]

I used to use either "[MANDATORY E-SARCASM TAG]" or just "[SARCASM] [/SARCASM]".

Oh, Oh, Oh, Prince of Leigh is back! Time to give the inbred drunken northeners what for!

Your powers are weak. We Northerners have been clobbering you Southern Pansies in that thread for almost a year now. So much so that Ramunchan has run off into the looney bin with Non-Con not far behind.

I feel my blood stiring I tell you. The yanks and the frogs are fun to abuse, but there is no real sport in it, ahh abusing the cloth cap wearers...

I agree. The French posters have certainly gone against my long held stereotype of buttoned up French with no sense of humour. Steph and Mascertougref (however the bloody hell it's spelt) have some of the driest wit on CFC.

Note - If you have to lable your comment wit rolleyes you lost, it wasnt cutting aserbic irony but scrcasm so poor it needed to be labled for people to notice.

Could not agree more

did he ever leave? short of throwing on a vest for a few minutes and beating on his other half i dont think he'll have found the time to do anything other than post comments on an internet website.

I resent that! I have plenty of time to... post on other internest websites. For like a month or so until I got the CFC sweats.

If thats all it takes. Oh..dont forget the /oh well and /meh.

True enough, whilst I'm not a big fan of the rolleyes and other similar signals, it's fair to say that some posts deserve nothing more in response.

A praise from a brit! Although recognizing our superiority is perfectly normal given how poorly you usually perform in our little contest, I must confess I'm a bit suprised that the idea took only a few months to reach the small number of functionning neuronnes you still have.
Lost in the vapor of warm beer and chilly English fog, I expected it to wander a few years in the vast emptyness of outer space (i.e. your inner skull).

that was excellent. Again. You're on a run, PoL

 

[CartesianFart]

Sarcasm only tries to humiliate the other poster.

It is only humiliating if you let it bother you by being too over-sensitive.

Oversensitive? What do you expect from a guy named Angeleyes?

 

[Azash]

Why, I'm never sarcastic.

You appearently don't know who was called angeleyes ....

 

[GenMarshall]

I cant tell the difference between Sacrasim and Seriousness.
