Senseless Sunday Sarcasm : Disenergetic
I love making up words. When my energy is spent, I feel dis-energetic.
Now that you know my present energy level is that of a 100 year old on life support, I’ll tell you why.
Yesterday, I did laundry: 4 blankets, one load of towels, more clothes than any one person should own, and…I’m just not remembering what else was thrown into the washer at the moment. While the duds suds, I was editing 40 pages so I can send book 3 for final edits to my editor.
Then there was vacuuming, and last — after sitting at the computer wondering what I’d forgotten — I almost burned a chocolate cake.
Did I mention giving a 50 pound dog a bath? He has to be lifted into the tub and it takes all the yoga & wrestling I can do to keep him there while I wash him.
It looks something like this:
So, in light of the fact that I’m experiencing a sarcasm chasm, here are a few memes found on social media:
Today, I think I resemble this remark:
No…it’s called a mushroom, as Vegans don’t seem to have any morels.
One of the many reasons that Mr. Spock will always be a favorite.
It takes skill to deliver sarcasm. This is a trait that one must have in order to do it well.
From the land of the brain freeze and home of the depraved. You had to know this one was coming:
Now THAT’s what I call SoarCatsm.
Well — if you didn’t laugh at least once during this post, I haven’t done my job.
So….I’ll leave you with this thought: If you were offended, but laughed anyway, then I have excelled — at least once — at the art of sarcasm.
I laughed so hard there were tears!

I love the last one; speakers have had visits to universities cancelled if there is any possibility they might offend someone who might be in the audience…

But it’s okay to offend someone whose beliefs don’t match theirs. Hypocrisy — the new norm.

Did you know that African people don’t traditionally have sarcasm in their language and culture. Quite interesting, I think. A most entertaining post with far to much washing. I have had a bit of a washing weekend myself.

I did not know that about Africa.
Washing is the modern day curse. You have to wear a different set of clothing every day, but it wasn’t always that way.

Agreed, my mom said that during the war she war her dress (as a child) for a whole week before it was washed.

Some really good ones over there. The one about left and right brain hemispheres and the last one, of course.
