Am I too ingorant? (34)

I read some of the threads and the answers and I have a question:Why is there so much sarcasm in here,so much disappointment,why do people make serious threats ridiculous?They start well and after some time you just read jokes anymore.Maybe I am very naiv, maybe I just don't know the rules of this game-so you will tell me. Thanks

yes --- perhaps we could attempt at posting the good stuff in our lives
Good news story no numero uno---

A lovely lady hobbled into the door today and got tangled up in the beads. As she unraveled herself ( with my assistance ) I noticed her foot was in plaster-- a large box of --- you guessed it chocolatoes was under her arm--- for me! --

---An unexpected thank you for merely phoning her a cab- early one morning

I think that many singles are indeed more sarcastic and have a more wicked sense of humour than those who are in stable relationships... it may not necessarily be the rule, just an observation.
Some become sarcastic with time because they are disappointed in their search for an ideal mate... there is also a possibility that they are they still single because they are too sarcastic and less positive than those who are in a happy relationshi.
Most people want to have a positive partner who will not pass sarcastic remarks every minute! Others just have a different sense of humour. For some their sarcasm is just a way to hide their real feelings. Many people want to give an impression of being very strong and confident, so they choose this mask.
Just something to think about

For the Brtish in particular, laughter is the best sort of medicine, sarcasm is a part of our humour, and everyone likes to smile.
How many serious threads can you post? How many subjects are there to talk about? The world is depressing enough at this moment, let's have some joy and laughter in our lives

perhaps over analysis is the cause---

Other than the rules and regulations posted by CS, everyone's free to post what they like, there's no limit to what is said.......or not said.
It's amazing the variety of posts that we do see here, and the depth of people's knowledge, however, if I don't like a thread I just leave, there's no reason to stay reading anything that annoys or depresses us.
How's Adelaide nowadays Waterdragon333?

All pretty cool Jacko-- getting some wonderful spring rain with a Summer-y Xmas just around the corner--- thanks for asking

Yes, I do enjoy British humour! Oscar Wilde was one of the first authors I read in the original when I was studying English in my teens... A lot of Russian classical literature is bitter satire as well! But I think that the thread was not about understanding humour but about the people's characters... it is OK when they are real and say what they mean and not just drop in to start a row!
