Scientist have been busy again and have determined that humans’ use of sarcasm is a sign of evolution.
It seems those with damage to the right frontal lobe are unable to distinguish sarcasm in a conversation.
In simplistic evolutionary terms, if you can’t keep up with who is putting you down with sarcastic comebacks then you won’t know who your enemies are and you can’t defend yourself socially or plot to poke them in the eye with a spork in the office cafeteria.
In conclusion I say, “Bite me.”
