Um, why? This was an actual survey to find out peoples definitions of sarcasm. I'll assume you answered yes..? I thought it rather on topic in The Steps with recent discussions.

Those may very well be your intentions...but I see this as a troll topic. Plus the thread seems to promote spam posts. However, if this topic ignites in some actual discussion about sarcasm, we could move it back.

To attempt some legitimate content:

"Do you consider this topic to be sarcastic?"
No, just spam. How would this be any aspect of sarcasm?

Which was in main part, the point of this. To demonstrate that we have different definitions of sarcasm and other types of humor. Personally, I feel it is in some sense sarcastic. But only on a very deep level which is not visible without knowing my mindset at the time.

Thus, different people find different things funny. However, don't tell a joke to an audience that wont get it. You might end up with Daylight Saving Time.

How does that have anything to do with this? :? We're discussing sarcasm, not humor. You asked if this is sarcastic; it is not.

It was a political and social point with unfolding arguments over multiple posts. The points made in the first post would have been rendered null if they were made at the same time as those in that post. By saying it I make it have something to do with it.

Also, FYI your next post will be your 10,000th.
