I never claimed ALL sarcasm was this. Please quote me on saying that.

Want to know something HILARIOUS? I never claimed that you claimed that "ALL" sarcasm "was this."

I would never claim such insipid BULLSHIT.

You say plenty deserving this characterization.

[blathering]

Simple enough? Or do you need more Sensible Conversation 101?
All sarcasm is non-responsive... I can't believe this.

Maybe because I "NEVER" said what you pretend I said. "I can't believe this." LOL

And the Red, Red Robin Comes Bob, Bob, Bobbing Along.

Well, for the Aspies who may lurk around here (no offense):

"In lieu of responding to 2/4's sarcastic post (wait, doesn't 2/4 habitually criticize sarcasm as defensive and non-responsive? ah, oh well.)"

That bit very strongly insinuates that I'm being hypocritical by being "sarcastic", while "habitually" criticizing this in others.
Well, if you've learned ANYTHING from my response, you now know this is stupid.

If something is stupid, it doesn't matter whether you outright claim it, claim it only to 90%, or insinuate it, "wink wink nudge nudge", it's still stupid.

Sarcasm has NOTHING to do with it. It's ALL about the substance of the content. Sarcasm is a mere expression tool.

It strongly insinuates that you wrongly deride people's sarcasm when that sarcasm is justified. What I "learned" from your post is that you can offer reasoning to support the use of sarcasm. What you miss is that the same reasoning supports sarcasm used by many of us that you've derided in the past. You fail to recognize that.

I would have been easier if you just admit you misread my post than trying to find a reason to call what I wrote stupid. But you're missing the point that the sarcasm you've dismissed is justified for the reasons you now offer.

Your post says nothing about how justified someone's sarcasum is.

But you know what, granted.
I usually have the "habit" of expaining in (painful, to everyone here) detail why I claim someone's sarcasm to be invalid, or compensatory, or defensive.

But who knows what evils I may have committed in those depths of flames? Those threads were LONG, man!

So please, next time you see me do that, please call me on it! In fact, that's my contribution to this thread - I never want to accuse someone of unjustified sarcsam if it's actually justified (even if I've never done this before)!
But don't expect me to accept it without a fight, should a reason present itself :D
