I’m too sarcastic…

Everyone I know picks up on the fact that I’m too sarcastic. I have to work to stop myself from hurting those who I love.

Step inside my mind for a moment and you will discover that I think very much like DR. House for hit US medical show ‘House’.

I wish I could be as open with my sarcastic view point as he is. I really admire the character. But at the same time there are maybe three people I really care about and don’t wish to upset with my pessimistic sarcastic stance on things…

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.

I push the boundaries of what is socially acceptable. I don’t stop when I hurt people, not until they are broken and hate me. And i can do it 24 hours a day. I a have a girl friend (that being different from a girlfriend) who I hang out with a lot and she is quite sarcastic too but she often can’ stand to be with me and often has to walk away from me and pretends not to be associated with me!

We discussed the House thing, and she said it would be ok if I was sexy and crippled - seeing that I’m neither, I have to play by the rules of society :(

I *heart* help bot. Help bot understands that I’m on the verge of suicide ever time I post.

That said, I usually get the suicidal feelings after Help Bot messages me!

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

You see, when I hold back, is clear to everyone who knows me that I’m holding back. And to be honest, I don’t care about those I don’t know - by definition I cant care about them.

So its lose lose.

See, I joke about myself all the time and I just don’t care what people think about me (which, for them, is rather frustrating as they care about what I say to them) so its not a bad thing and I ought not to worry…

Uh, I don’t think you can care about people who you don’t know. For starters, I don’t know them!

That’s such a rockin’ idea! But could someone please tell me why House is hot. I can’t put my finger on it exactly - I mean he is a badly dressed junkie that can play a bit of piano and walks with a limp.

I’m almost there, not a junkie yet so girls should mostly dig me - and well they don’t!

Trust me, I do! Thinking at the speed of light and snapping back as quick gives one such a rush. I wish I could do it more - just the whole being nice to the ones I love thing is dragging me down! Everyone lies!

Lol i seem to have the same issue i am too sarcastic for peoples liking sometimes… however, that is a part of who i am. i dont think that its an absolute bad thing, although, ” too much of a good thing can be bad,” even if it doesnt seem that great at that point and time…

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 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.

frig house and frig you too.
if you’re sarcastic all the time it’s either because you have some sociopathic issues or you just don’t care.
The solution? try being genuine. save your wittisisms for three sentences after you usually would. the ability to listen, actually listen, to people is one of the most powerful skills a human being can possess. Being sarcastic isn’t.
