I don't think a reasonable conversation can be had with someone who doesn't know the difference between "taken" and "taking."

    You're an idiot.... Satire is making a joke out of something by using ANY type of humor as long as you're using the same concept. Which I did in altering the title... #someonetookyourbraincells? #iknowthisisnttwitter #thisisatire

  • In case you don't understand why I googled satire for you, let me offer an easy to follow explanation at to why I did. I googled satire for you because a simple googling of the definition of satire will in fact, show you the definition of satire. (It's pretty shocking, I'll put in a break so you can catch your breath and recollect your thoughts.) (Nice break huh?) after reading said definition, it will state that satire does use many forms of humor to point out the negative traits of the subject, just like you said, go you for getting a part right! (I added another line break so you can celebrate, see I'm not a bad guy!) now here is where things change pace. What you wrote in your (un)original post, is not satire. (Need another line break for the shock? No? You've got your big boy pants on, I think you can handle it now.) (Here's one just in case I was wrong.) What you did was outright insult TTK. [spoiler]BREAKING NEWS: INSULTING SOMETHING AN MAKING SATIRE ABOUT SAID SUBJECT ARE NOT THE SAME, OLD AND NEW REPORTS HAVE SHOWN THAT THIS IS IN FACT TRUE, WILL THERE BE MORE, STAY TUNED TO FIND OUT.[/spoiler] (You still following me?) Now I'm almost half heartedly expecting you to cherry pick 'ridicule' as an excuse and prove me wrong and this whole post irrelevant, good on us for having a keen eye! Ridicule is a form of satire because it doesn't make the audience angry, much like you have right here in this whole thread, ridicule gets the people thinking, "Why is this OP saying words, what do they mean? What is the deeper meaning of his well thought-out, cleverly worded post OP?" Ridicule is a jab at the subject, not a straight up attack. (There are no drinks or snacks, sorry.) TLDR: you're baselessly insulting TTK instead of quote unquote satire.

  • I understand what you're saying. I know what I'm doing but just the Title is satire. Not how I'm replying to the low IQ trash. That's not satire.
