Snark.

In comments elsewhere on the web, someone complained that they didn't come here anymore because of the pointless sarcasm and condescension.

I commiserated. I mean, coming here if you don't like sarcasm and condescension would be like going to the zoo if you didn't like giraffes and monkeys.

There's a saying - I'm not sure I'm remembering it correctly, seeing how it's Monday AM and I haven't finished my coffee. It has something to do with heat and a kitchen...oh yeah, and GET OUT.

Meh.

I have a caustic, sardonic sense of humor; I've known this since grade school. It's not everybody's cup of tea.

When I first started posting on the internet I thought "Well, I can be really bland and never piss anybody off, or I can be myself and have a good time." I'm comfortable with the choice I made.

Who doesn't love sassy monkeys and wise-ass wild asses? While we're at it, here's my favorite old bar-fly joke.
"Giraffe walks into a bar and says 'Drink up everybody. The high balls are on me!"

In the immortal words of Auggie Smith.

"I don't like Bed Bath & Beyond, I don't like what goes on in Bed Bath & Beyond, you know what I do about it? I don't got into Bed Bath & Beyond"

Seems appropriate.

Damn. I was hitting this site for the snark!

Delicious snark, yummy snark.

If you can't take the snark, stay off the porch.
