Love help: I’m too sarcastic… - Help.com

Really?? Now way! That’s toooo cooooool…

hehe

sarcasm just pokes fun at lifes stupidities, i say continue with it

I wouldn’t worry about to be honest with you. Don’t change who you are just because people can’t accept that your a little sarcastic. lol and beside Dr. House is hilarious.

You’re afraid of hurting the ones you love? Do you know how melodramatic that sounds? Seriously, I’m surprised you didn’t get Helpbot on this one. Sarcasm rocks, and it’s fun offending people. That’s my favorite hobby: offending people and seeing what color their face turns.

Honestly, Ross, I can’t imagine you crippling anyone’s soul. You’re like the pet hamster form 4th grade.

well if your seriously trying to change then take small steps.. like everytime you want to say something that would normally roll off your tounge try to hold back, after a few times of avoiding certain degrees of sarcasm in certain situations youll know what the line is when not to cross it. soon enough people will be drawn to you again. instead of sarcasm.. replace it with a line of inspiration.. a little far fetch i know but hey give it a shot

So you lose, my little fourth grade hamster friend. Be a good sport.

If you can’t joke about others then joke about yourself

well, caring about ppl you dont know might be a good step to considering others feelings

oh man if I was like house I would feel awesome all the time

Sarcasm is the tool of a weak mind…………….which is why I never use it myself.

Sarcasm is a tool inteligent people use to insult idiots without their knowledge! I use it ALL the time! :-P

sooo u have problems being serious is that what u mean?

would have been funnier if I had spelled intelligent correctly! lol was a typo!

oooo okay lol

No one understnads my sarcasm whic is funny to me because people think I’m serious about things that I’m really not.
Do people know you’re being sarcastic when you use your sarcasam?

ummmm yes I do and they laugh at me all the time but sometimes I try not 2 be and they still laugh which kinda makes me mad

try to make the jokes not about the pp close to u, but about sth in general or far from ur friends. in the way, u wont hurt them :)

well, its okay thet your sarcastic. i do that too.
i have sarcasm in my voice even when i dont realize it!!!
i try not to be sarcastic to ppl, but i cant really help it. i mean most of it in a joking way, but sometimes it comes out very hurting.

people say sarcasm is the lowest form of wit, but then, wit is the highest form of humour, so really its worst of the best, not a bad call really

I LOVE HOUSE ! HEHE
i missed it , i havent watched in for a while now hehee

I think you just have to be who you are and understand that not everybody is going to like or understand you that’s just how it is even if your not sarcastic people won’t always understand what your saying.

I don’t see why sarcaism would bother anyone; I find it hilarious.

And to AnishK: Kids in the Hall truly are, as they say, “the ****”.

I have had this problem, I was just like you. I loved it, being on top of the world and hurling down my sentences down upon the ignorant masses like javelins. But then I realized that this superiority was only in my head. I didn’t change my sarcasm however, I changed my attitude. I become a nicer person and with that my friends accepted my sarcasm as a quirky trait rather then an insulting feature of mine. Because if your not intending to be vindictive or to elevate yourself using your words, then you wont insult anyone.

kinda same thing here - except i wasn’t particularly sarcastic just blunt - i was young - yeah - just turned the bluntness to sarcasm whilst attempting to become a nicer person - friends accepted sarcasm - though some were still a little annoyed sometimes - the phrase ’sarcasm is the lowest form of wit’ - but i stand by the fact that the only people who say that are those incapable of using sarcasm thus jealous. They all accept it and are quite sarcastic themselves - having sarcastic friends is helpful - so the girl friend is cool
difference i suppose is that i use alot of my sarcasm against myself and only against those who i know can take it - and in family sport - sledging - the great Australian tradition.
Empathy is useful when judging who can hack it - don’t take away you sarcasm just use responsibly - sarcastic ability is a gift ;)

Tact is simply the way of making a point without making an enemy- Isaac Newton (i think)

And House is a poor man’s Sherlock Holmes…they even made him an addict and everything :P

too true - frankly - not to offend the postee but house pisses me off - the shoes becoming cliche and predictable - anyway

u aint the only one that is sarcastic!

Actually, that’s not true. Pretty much everybody cares about those they don’t know… It’s human instinct :-)

But anyway… I didn’t really read all of the replies, but I’ll respond anyway. I love the House character. But, I don’t find him “sarcastic”. Rather he is incredibly Whitty. There’s a fine line between sarcasm and whit.

I’ll never forget a comment I overheard about 20 years ago… Sarcasm is the cheapest form of humour. That is to say, it’s just too easy to be sarcastic. That’s why it’s so annoying, especially to whitty people, there’s no intelligence behind sarcasm.

So, having said that… If you feel your comments are actually “sarcastic”, then instead of just saying that first sarcastic comment that comes to mind, maybe try giving it a little more thought and turn it into something whitty.

I hope I’m not coming across as being mean, that’s Totally not my intent. I just thought I’d pass on that little bit of wisdom I overheard 20 years ago :-). For me, everytime I’m about to spit out some sarcastic comment, that thought pops into my mind, and sometimes I stop myself… And, sometimes, well, sometimes you just gotta be sarcastic.

I agree with sag. sometimes it’s appropriate and sometimes it’s not. if people are being offended by it, then try to make sure they aren’t the subject of it. example: if someone you’re eating lunch with is eating the most disgusting cafeteria food everrr…instead of saying something like ‘you’d have to be a real loser to put that in your mouth’ say ‘what stupid cafeteria would serve that?’ just redirect your sarcasm.

Hmmm… Now I’m curious… Do you know why you enjoy being sarcastic? And, the answer is not because “Thinking at the speed of light and snapping back as quick gives one such a rush”!!! That IS the enjoyment… But, WHY do you enjoy it?

well timed humour purposes?

It’s ok. My WHOLE family is sarcastic, some more than others. Just try to see things from other people’s point of view. How will they react to what you say to them?

You are REALLY CUTE!!!

Hey I actually have that problem too to be honest with you. It’s unfortunate because people usually think I’m a *****, when in reality I’m not trying to be. I’m horribly opinionated and I think it’s possible that I maybe use it as a defense mechanism to show society how little I care. You know what, that’s not always a good thing, nor is it always attractive. I don’t have any advice for you at all, as I am also struggling with this same problem. Furthermore, I don’t recommend listening to a lot of people on here who seem to agree with your thinking, because while it is easy for them to express their opinion with a mask, it can be obnoxious for people like us to express our usually controversial opinions face to face.Let me know if you come up with anything…

By the way, I picked up on the sarcasm when you were talking about your “overwhelming intelligence”, even though I guess rageofsand did not.

Guess that means I’m more screwed than I thought, haaa.

**** rageofsand deactivated his account or was removed? thats ****, boy spoke of chaos in the world, ****

I don’t think so - i think they can usual find something to funny through sarcasm in each situation - wateva
God Bless

I’m a bit late, but some food for thought. Perhaps, you aren’t funny at all. If everyone around you complains about your sarcasm, then you aren’t funny. You are just an a$$hole. I picked up on that when you said you have to wait for others to respond. A dose of humility would probably make your sarcasm a bit funnier. Joking about yourself is not saying “yeah, I’m God” in a sarcastic tone. I’m sarcastic, but people actually like me. I dated a girl who was sarcastic, but she was really just a b!tch (with no friends) because she really believed the nasty venom she spewed in “jest” and it was obvious to everyone. Having some dweeb rib you every chance they get is exhausting. Your loved ones may be holding back because they can tell you are just really insecure and this “sarcasm” is all you hold onto.
