I’ve been evaluating myself in light of the “reputation” I am getting that says I am sarcastic. Now, sarcasm is not nice. It’s purpose is to put down others and raise myself up. If that were my purpose, I would be in a bovine’s heaven with all the red meat in Washington! Now, see I did it. 😀
When I said Biden chose Kamala as his VP, because that was his insurance plan against being removed as President, it was satire because I think it is funny and it does sound much better than saying it was a stupid thing to do. 😀
Sarcasm or satire? I call my statement satire. There is safety in satire. “Satire is a form of expression that utilizes humor to expose human failings and corruptions,” says someone on google with whom I agree.
But I am sarcastic about the political issue of climate control! “Oh, yes, let us throw some money at the problem. We are Democrats. There is nothing more money can’t solve!” I am putting down the issue, however, not people. If I named the King of Climate and pointed out the mint of money he has made off this issue, I would likely roll right over into sarcasm. T’woud be so easy. 😀 Jesus told us however, not to call our brother a fool, so I’m stopping right no…..
So I laughed a couple hours ago about the “Green” movement cutting down mountains of trees that are used in the process of making windmill energy That was because of the irony of the whole situation. Another interesting word, “irony” or “ironic”.
Dear Bloggers and other readers, please tell folks I am a great satirist. I’ll try to live up to the title.
Oh, before I really go, I want to point you to a great use of sarcasm by none other than God, himself. Micah 1:8. God is upset that the folks would offer him polluted sacrificial lambs . He said, “Try offering that to your Governor.” I love that. And I think it is sarcastic. I’ll give God room to roam there if He would like to do so.
If we point out hypocrisy either sarcastically, satirically, or ironically, seems we laugh in the exact same way. Who is to know? lol
Most likely it is funny and satisfying. Evil, bullying, and selling our selves down the river need to be pointed out is some way. Our way does not involve pulling out the eyeball as long as you can kick other balls. Oops. Did I cross the line?
🤣 not with me.
You are not sacastic. You are a stitch and I think that’s much more fun than being satirically correct/
Oh, Kathy, I had to look up “a stitch”. This is what I found. “exercise-related transient abdominal pain”. 🙂 🙂
Oh no. I didn’t mean that. A stitch can also mean someone that makes us laugh – or in stitches🥸
“a bellyache?” Having fun with you. 😀
