Greeeeeeeaaaaaat

It's time once again to educate our sarcasm-impaired brothers and sisters. That's right! It's...

Sarcasm Awareness Month!

How does that make you feel?

Ladies and gentlemen, sarcasm!

And that brings us to our first lesson: lack of punctuation.

 

You may remember one of the classic sarcastic cakes from way back:

The sarcastically inept might think this is praising Bob when, in fact, it's telling Bob to go suck an egg.

 

Let's try some more:
What are these cakes really saying?

This means the best probably happened a while ago, and you missed it.

 

This means you did something stupid - and everyone saw.

 

And this means nobody here cares about the specifics of your situation, so go away so we can eat some cake already. 

 

There you have it! I do hope we've made you more aware of sarcasm.

Because that would make us:

No, really.

See what I did there?

 

Thanks to Mariya N., Sarah C., Donna H., Kim B., Brad C. & Julia K. for being the brightest rays of sunshine yet, only in a really really good way. Honest.

My Friend The Witch Baker Has A Way With Words

I told the witch baker I was in love with you


 

And then the witch baker, he told me what to do

He told me..

 
 

 

Ting! Tang!

WALLA WALLA BING BANG.

 
 
 

 

Ting...

...Tang?

 

Walla Walla Bing Bang!

 

Thanks to Misty B., Jenny W., Kayleigh S., Anony M., Susie M., Denis S., Carmen N., Bonny B., Dora M., & Mary W. for that pregnant pause.

P.S. It's time again for me to sing the praises of my amazing sleep headphones:

Bluetooth Sleep Headphones

I listen to boring audio books on these every night to keep my brain from spinning out of control, which works wonders for my insomnia. These things have been a life saver: comfy enough for side sleeping, not too loud like some of my old speakers, doubles as an eye mask to block the light, and they only cost $13 Prime.
