Lyn K - My IQ is 157. I'm a member of Mensa and i too have 2 Degrees one of which is a masters, and i'm currently working on my third. None of which has any bearing on the understanding of sarcasm or irony, it was just a chance for you to show off.
Ah look Douglas is here. Nearly time for my epiphany, you said January didn't you?? I hope it doesn't hurt...

i'm American and locate many human beings comprehend and take exhilaration in irony and sarcasm. even inspite of the shown fact that, I even have run for the time of people who don't get it. they're oftentimes the kind who don't have lots of mind's eye, have not been taught to think of 'out of the field', and characteristic a tendency to take each and every thing actually. perhaps you will desire to attempt a different team of folk. in case you're relating human beings who answer your questions approximately this website, you will desire to learn how to assume this on your solutions. For some reason people who're stunned, angered or challenged via something it somewhat is written are people who answer quickest and maximum. yet i'm specific you do get a smattering of solutions that play on your sarcasm. Are you recognize-how the sarcasm of their solutions?

Sarcasm - a sardonic commentary on a phrase, situation, idea or person that whimsically sets out to discredit the core of an idea with the use of passive aggressive tone that contradicts the content of what is actually being spoken.
Irony - The juxtaposition of two opposing states of being that should, in theory, complement one another, but do not.
I'm Australian.

Lyn K, is that an American IQ or a British one?
You seem to have an aversion to capital letters. I thought he was called Oscar Wilde.
Your punctuation and grammar is pretty bad too. What was your degree in? Illiteracy?

I can see from your question that you are a lover of the inhabitants of the USA. Americans are mainly dumb and poorly educated, a recent poll in the US asked how far Baghdad was from London....the most popular answer was....100 miles!!!!
They need your pity not hatred........
