Rob8891 Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 Is this request for a sarcasm font a way of overcoming (some) yanks' (alleged) inability to understand irony? ..... in addition to the use of smileys, that is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

submaniac Posted January 22, 2013 Author Share Posted January 22, 2013 (edited) obviously the request for the sarcasm font was not necessitated by submaniac. As everyone reading this thread is well aware the name submaniac has come to be known far and wide throughout the kingdom and the far reaches of the internet as a synonym for intelligence, charm, dry sardonic wit and overall generally sexy ways. In addition to these noble attributes, submaniac has also come to be associated with selfless and magnanimous behavior. It's not really for me. i was just thinking of all those other poor thaivisa posters who are unable to differentiate sarcasm cuz I didn't want them to be confused and all...

Altruistic you seem Hope people will appreciate your puny endeavour. Let's not forget humble. Submaniac is all about being humble. Like extremely humble and stuff. And Rob, It appears you made a typo in your posting. Looks like you accidentally quoted my statement when clearly you meant to refer to the quote of another poster in this thread. PPS The PS may be interpreted as irony, however. You are absolutely correct. We also need an irony font around here.

StreetCowboy Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 I doubt that there's many on this forum would need a sarcasm font. I doubt that people would use it, in any case, and others would complain when the mods retrofitted it. It might be better to apply a qualification to our posting licenses: Caution: May contain sarcasm Caution: Irony-blind Caution: Cannot see wood for trees (my apologies for the golfing digression...) Cation: Kleptomaniac, easily takes offence etc. SC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canuckamuck Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 (edited) The delight of sarcasm is that the container is only partially transparent - like a white shirt. Announcing the sarcasm, like pulling off the top, is more direct, but less intriguing and cannot be prolonged indefinitely. However in some cases the direct approach is more pertinent.
