That was sarcasm...right? But if you said, "Oh yeah, you are definitely my hero after that emotionally crippling post" that would be sardonism. Or am I still completely off?

Why don't you lay off the mods already . Its growing old . If you don't like the way things are run you can always go some place else .

Did you see the post...it wasn't against "the mods" I happen to like a lot of the mods! For example Sep is spending her time to help me with this problem and I really appreciate it. Bang Guy is one of the coolest people ever too. Did you see the thread? I just loved the way the guy handled that. Nothing against Renogaw personally.

Oh no. You have me wrong. I wasn't directing that at you.
The word you are looking for is sardonic...don't think sardonism is a word...I gave you an example already as have many others...don't think you are going to find a black and white difference of sarcastic and sardonic.

sardonism is to sardonic as sarcasm is to sarcastic. Sardonism is just seldomly used, hence the google search thing. This is coming from Dictionary.com and a few other sites like that...Yeah, I guess I'll just have to face facts that I can't figure this out.

i think Sep cleared it up for you... sarcastic is playful... sardonic is scornful...
Is that seriously all. So...is it more about the way you use it than the word choice? If you jokingly say you like it when people sneeze all over you...it's sarcasm...but if you say it cynically and are being mean, then it's sardonism?

No sarcasm is to sarcastic as sardonic is to sardonicism....sardonism is not a word.
