The Science of Sarcasm
2008-06-05 14:08:00 From the New York Times: There was nothing very interesting in Katherine P. Rankin’s study of sarcasm — at least, nothing worth your important time. All she did was use an M.R.I. to find the place in the brain where the ability to detect sarcasm resides. But then, you probably already knew it was in the right parahippocampal gyrus. What you may not have realized is that perceiving sarcasm, the smirking put-down that buries its barb by stating the opposite, requires a nifty mental trick that lies at the heart of social relations: figuring out what others are thinking. Those who lose the ability, whether through a head injury or the frontotemporal dementias afflicting the patients in Dr. Rankin’s study, just do not get it when someone says during a hurricane, “Nice weather we’re having.”
Where?s the sportsmanship and why the sarcasm?
2008-05-16 12:41:00 After much thought, there seem to be much need (from self) to write this… So be warned, much anger and thoughts in this post. We had an inter-dept compy earlier, everyone was looking forward to supporting their own team. Same goes for our dept, creating makeshift banners from recycled paper to support our friends / colleagues. But upon ...

My Little Feminist /sarcasm
2008-03-29 15:38:00 After driving Mandy to work this morning, and getting Lily settled down with some cartoons, I decided I should mow the lawn. I have a very brown thumb but I still am determined to have a nice yard. I told Lily I was going out to the back yard to mow and she told me, "girls don't mow, only boys mow"Lily out-climbs, out-runs, out-jumps, every boy on the playground. She may like to wear pink but she is a rough little girl. Where have I gone wrong, how have I failed? Where is my little feminist? I was so upset. I spent 45 minutes trying to get the mower to start, now I am blogging. Where are all the boys?Jeff is off at the Bataan Memorial Death March this weekend. Have fun baby, don't worry I will find a way to mow even if I have to go and buy an electric lawn mower. Why don't they just have a key starter like the car?I follow comments. Leave a comment and I will come visit your blog.

2008-02-24 06:18:00 My husband has a great sense of humor. He’s dry, acerbic and can make most people laugh. But his comedy relies on sarcasm and taking the piss out of people and their taste.

Sarcasm, Harry Potter and Satanism, Oh My!
2008-02-22 01:41:00 Bear with me while I conduct a little experiment.I've noticed that the traffic on this site has taken a significant drop over the past week or so. Analyzing my stats, I see that I'm not getting nearly as many hits from Google image search any more. This isn't necessarily a bad thing; what I'm interested in is readers, not people looking for Britney Spears pics (and yes, in answer to yesterday's questions, I did actually post one picture of Britney before yesterday -- in my Britney/Paris Hilton caption contest).Anyway, this discovery prompted me to do some experimenting with Google image search, and sure enough, I'm no longer the world's leading authority on sarcasm. If you look hard enough, you can find my sarcasm motivational poster, but on someone else's site. What's up with that?Same thing with "Harry Potter Satanism." My "Satanism for Dummies" book cover pops up, but on someone else's site.And the form that I tore out of the back of a Harry Potter book to request ...

Violence in United States of America

When Sarcasm Turns Into Sincerity
2007-10-03 09:22:00 Before I start writing a single word of a script or embarking on a new project, I always give it a title, and I'm always thoroughly pleased with the titles I come up with. Big Hunk o' Burnin' Love, Jukebox Stories, Emophiliacs?they're catchy, they're resonant, and they ooze with meaning. So it's a special occasion when I forgo an original title and instead name a script after a song. This has happened twice. All Men Are Liars is one of my first plays, which won me my first playwriting award ever, and Drive-Thru Man is a screenplay I wrote a few years ago. Both titles were taken from Nick Lowe songs.That's what I wanted to tell Nick tonight after his exquisite performance at Safari Sam's in Hollywood, but the bouncer, who was unsympathetic to fandom, wouldn't let me backstage. Instead, I had to bask in the afterglow of a truly splendid evening.Nick Lowe is a badass. At 58, he tore though a 21-song acoustic set that spanned his 30-year career; he eschewed a guitar pick in fav...

Video - Atheist Delusion
2007-09-21 09:29:00 First of all, I'm a God believer, but I do see atheists make a lot of sense. I support them in many ways against people who are so devoted in their religions that they don't see the points in other religions. I believe that you're free to believe in what you choose 'cause at the end, none of it seems to matters. Adults believing in God in a way is similar to children believing in teddy bears and Santa. One could say that they're all methods of coping mechanisms we create to deal with life. Interesting topic.

More people use Linux than Windows 98 - what an achievement [sarcasm]

Could this be because of how much Linux has been brought to peoples ...

Memo To Coulter: Retire Your Sarcasm *Updated*
2007-03-06 22:41:02 Seriously…you’re giving liberals fuel to hold something stupid and negative against us conservatives. Now we have to listen to the MSM attack and condemn your remarks for probably a full week. All I’m going to hear this week is Coulter this Coulter that, liberals spewing their “hate-filled”, “bigot” remarks that we hear all the time. And you know the MSM is going to hold onto it as long as they can. Now when I have my weekly argument with the local liberal colleague at work, I have to fend off the moonbat’s rhetoric of your insulting statements, that which may be funny anyway, but in a political world, you’re only feeding the enemy, and making the conservative movement more difficult. Ann. we love you, we love what you do, we love what you stand for, but, cmon, you are better than that…oh and Laura Ingraham and Michelle Malkin agree as well ADDED (SistaInfidel): She had a lot of funny jokes, but then had to cancel every... |
