No fault of yours, that's a weakness of mine. * * *

One of my greatest weaknesses is the tendency to become a sarcastic bstrd, to make a strong point during a heated debate. I have been 'trying' to discipline myself from doing that for the past couple of years. For me, it just comes out impulsively in real life. The nice thing about posting on threads is, I can stop and think of a better way to say something that still gets the point across. When I do use sarcasm, I sometimes include a <sarcasm> at the end. You would be amazed at how many people wont appreciate humor unless you put <g> at the end. Sometimes it is lack of humor, other times it is because they just prefer to take the opportunity for a dig. Sarcasm is even worse.
