Sarcasm is a key staple to the rhetoric of un-witty and insecure people.
Generally, sarcastic people lack the intelligence to conceive a proper reply, so they feign erudite by using sarcasm.
Sarcasm is always a hip, trendy way to be e-cool.
Unfortunately, e-coolness is linked to to persistent virginity, mental insecurity, lack of wit, and general neural atrophy, which leads to the use of sarcasm, hence creating a harsh circle of
pseudo-intellectualism.
