Sarcasm, Good Or Bad?

[Arpy]

Sarcasm also smells of elderberries as a corrective measure. Saying something like "Please fold the underwear next time" works better than "Oh, you're so good at folding underwear!" because one can be flippant about the latter and say "I know! Isn't it amazing?" which seems to rile some people. This might be totally obvious, but it only recently occurred to me.

Sarcasm is a rhetorical device; its neither good nor bad.

Well you see, I don't believe in folding underwear because {A} it's rather small, so taking up space in its drawer is a negligible concern and {B} who cares if it's wrinkled because nobody sees it anyway. Plus I never know to whom the panties belong; they all look the same to me.
