    Neither. I'm bad at irony and no one can tell when I'm being sarcastic (they think I'm serious).

    Sarcasm...I have always been a sarcastic twat. But not in an offensive way (if I can help it) and generally only around friends. Though if someone asks me a stupid question, or comes at me with ignorance...They better be prepared for sarcasm bitch style.

    Reprobates speak in an ignorantly repugnant manner.
    *sips tea*
    Never shall my verbal fire be hood certified. Only the most refined elegance, ya dig?




    Seriously though, I like to mix 'n match the two, but I love satire. Mm.

    Irony is a higher level of sarcasm when used properly. But most people don't really know what it is and sarcasm is easier to use.

    But if I can mock someone for stealing answers to a test they didn't wind up taking, I'll definitely do it. And love it.

    Irony is more entertaining for me to use, as it is like sarcasm 2.0

    I provide sarcasm as a service.


    Also, some of us bisexuals do like to choose. All.

    Sarcasm.

    But, my favorite thing is to say something completely different from what people are expecting (lie), while oozing sincerity.

    Or make a teasing comment really softly and when asked what I said, change it to something completely innocuous that sounds similar. Ex: You're so crazy = I feel so lazy...

    I'm too vitriolic and serious to use sarcasm, but I like hiding my obvious contempt with nice little euphemisms....yeah, I'm not great with sarcasm, if that attempt had any bit of it all all.
    Irony works better in writing so I prefer it since I love to write and lack the quick-wits needed for a well timed sarcastic comment.
