BadComedian & YourEx
You know, I've always wondered if sarcasm is just a polite way to manipulate people or if it's a high art.
Sarcasm is just polite manipulation – a fancy way to say “I’m mad at you” while still offering you a smile. It’s high art if you’re skilled at making people feel both insulted and oddly enlightened at the same time.
If sarcasm’s your stage, then the applause comes only if the audience realizes they’re part of the act.
Exactly, it’s like a magic trick – you’re the trick, and the audience thinks they’re watching, but in reality, they’re the assistant who forgot the spell. Applause only if they see their own role in the comedy of being fooled.
