Yours Quilly,


No, I meant sarcasm:

sar.casm \"sär-'ka-z?m\ n 1 : a cutting or contemptuous remark 2 : ironic
criticism or reproach - sar.cas.tic \sär-"kas-tik\ adj - sar.cas.ti.cal.ly
\-ti-k(?-)lÈ\ adv

Notice how sarcasm embodies irony, however.

No,that wasn't sarcasm. That was lying.


Well, you see, willy boy is so desperate for someone - anyone - to
communicate with him that he is now reduced to lying simply in order
to make someone notice him.

Pitiful, really.
Cheers,

Bruce
