in the long run sarcasm usually takes care of itself through a gradual process of isolation. it doesn't really matter if some jackass forum poster with fucking Man-At-Arms as his icon might be getting the better of you and making you look like a tie-dyed koala that can only blow bubbles with its spit because jokes like tie-dyed koalas that blow spit bubbles die a lot faster than people.
also there's the chance that the heinous cretin pariah devil poster with the man-at-arms icon was actually not trying to get the better of you at all and your perception assigned wildly incongruous meaning to the event. in which case, you'd sorta be like a tie-dyed koala that could only scream through its nostrils.
I suspect the best way to neutralize sarcasm is to go out of your way to believe even the most blatant sarcastic comments. this tactic, while making you look like a lunatic to some, pays huge dividends where and when it really counts.
if you find that place & time let me know.
happy late birthday to you and lil Buscemi.
