Sarcasm 

How previously un-funny people can get others to think that they have a great sense of humor. Sarcasm can be funny, but oftentimes, users have trouble getting others to pick up on their sarcasm, and counter by blaming the 'listener' for this, citing his/her/their lack of intelligence. This is wrong, though. Sarcasm should be executed in a manner that allows the recipient(s) to understand that sarcasm is involved.

I use sarcasm every once and again.
