I am glad there is no sarcastication marks. I would have to set it as default for most of my writing and its meaning would be lost!
Great idea though. Let’s all so Sarcasticate today.

Yeah, “sarcastination” can be hard. I always obsess and edit my posts several times because I’m afraid that the reader wont get the sarcastic tone, but rather think me bitter. And they are so different. You can totally be sarcastic without being bitter. Or so I keep telling myself ;-)

Yeah, sarcastication is a form of art.

[...] OK, I simply love this post because I have thought this same thing, struggled with how to “sarcasticate” many times while typing, and never thought to post about it like Julie Roads did. What IS [...]

I love ‘Fe’ and ‘NaCl’ that is inspired…I’m sure some of the things that I write are sulfuric as well. This must be explored…as must RML…
Love that you came by…Julie

I’ve often thought that we need a “Rhetorical Markup Language,” similar to what we have in HTML (Hypertext Markup Language).

I have seen people use [sarc] and then [/sarc] to indicate a sarcastic passage. In the same way, we could use an [fe] tag to indicate irony (Fe being the chemical symbol for the element iron; this could lead to all sorts of interesting tags, like [NaCl] for salty language).

Wow, I am so glad to see that there are others out on the interwebs that have sarcastic DNA!
Yes, I do believe it is part of someones DNA, scientist just have not made the coloration yet. I have daughters that are great at sarcasticating and it was not even something included in any lesson plan. I have warned them that being sarcastic maybe considered an art to us but, to others it just upsets them. When others get upset they tend to call you bad names and fire you! But, because of our unique makeup, the sarcastor just gets over it and moves on.

I am sure one day a loopyassed therapist will consider sarcasm a disorder and try to heal us with psychotropic drugs. Wow, come to think about it – A bunch of sarcastic people on mind altering drugs – we could get our own reality show! Fame and fortune awaits us! The sisterhood of sarcasm marches on!

Ok, I was just going to write a little blup here and now I have gotten carried away.
I will now go about my day, piss people off, and spread the news of sarcastication!

Sarah! A woman on a mission to comment! Your pastor is very smart – a great way of describing what I referred to as the possibility of my readers’ possible ineptitude. Hilarious about the knitting…you have to give us an example!!!

My pastor (of all people) maintains that sarcasm is the highest form of humor because it takes brains (on both ends). Definitely adopting “sarcastication.”

Deb’s “knittification” makes me think of a book of knitting patterns I got from the library this week. There were a huge variety of creations, but most of them just make me cry out, “WHY?” They knittified things that were never meant to be created on needles.
