"Sarcasim does not work!!!!"

Something that really annoys me with gamesaday is when ppl try 2 b sarcastic.

They dont seem 2 understant that sarcasim doesnt work in type, it's the tone of voice, it wasnt invented in type.

I just want ppl 2 know that it doesnt work and it isnt funny.

There you go Spider 2001 that is how to use sarcasm in the written word. And I tried to warn you that this would become an endless string of cr@p sarcasm based humour.

Sarcasn is hard 2 explain, it's like when some1 says " i can can run 500mph" and u say "yeah sure" in a different tone.

How old r u anyway

What is sarcasm? :)

I'm not sure... I *think* it was...

You're right. That is possibly the most insightful comment ever made on these forums. If published overe the whole net, it coulsd have morew widespread implications than all of Nelson Mandella and Abraham Lincolns speeches put toghether.

Impossible to detect.
