Font used in internet
conversation to denote sarcasm.
Most browsers, IM clients and email applications do not have sarcastica
installed thereby leading to ambiguity and confusion in text based conversations.
Sarcastica was invented to prevent these situations by the Minister of Practicality in 2010 and has yet to find mainstream adoption. Despite it's practicality and usefulness
universal adoption was deemed to be 'a whole thing'.
Sam:
What are you doing tomorrow?
Frodo: Heading off to Mordor to destroy
the One Ring of Power and save
the world from the Dark Lord's wrath. Wanna come?
Sam: WTF? You serious?
Frodo: nah, kidding. My sarcastica font isn't working again.
