�It�s sarcasm, Josh.�
�Sarcasm?�
�It�s from the Greek, sarkasmos. To bite the lips. It means that you aren�t really saying what you mean, but people will get your point. I invented it, Bartholomew named it.�
�Well, if the village idiot named it, I�m sure it�s a good thing.�
�There you go, you got it.�
�Got what?�
�Sarcasm.�
�No, I meant it.�
�Sure you did.�
�Is that sarcasm?�
�Irony, I think.�
�What�s the difference?�
�I haven�t the slightest idea.�
�So you�re being ironic now, right?�
�No, I really don�t know.�
�Maybe you should ask the idiot.�
�Now you�ve got it.�
"What?"
�Sarcasm.�
