Sarcasm

When I was a teenager and young adult, sarcasm was the in thing! Everyone around me let it fly constantly, but I found it cruel and painful. These quotes posted by a dear friend on facebook, expresses so well how I've always felt about it!

"Sarcasm, I now see to be, in general, the language of the Devil" (Thomas Carlyle, 1846)

"Ironically, most people who use sarcasm, feel as though their message is less toxic because it rides piggy-back on humor." (John Lund)
