Don't pretend you don't know what I'm talking about wise guy.


Now, now,... If you keep this up, you're going to put a strain on our relationship.

By God, you're right Bob, no sarcasm at all.




I give up.....


This is good news.  You understand I am, in fact, right,.. although I'm not sure you truly understand the diff between irreverence and sarcasm.

That you are giving up on this line of posting is a good thing as well.

I look forward to more issue-based posts from you.

Irreverance?.....you must mean irreverence....and yes, I do know the difference between that and sarcasm. Apparently you don't, as the quote from you that I posted, clearly shows a bit of both.


irreverence  (ɪˈrɛvərəns, ɪˈrɛvrəns)  

— n  
1.  lack of due respect or veneration; disrespect  
2.  a disrespectful remark or act  


sarcasm  (ˈsɑːkæzəm)  

— n  
1.  mocking, contemptuous, or ironic language intended to convey scorn or insult  
2.  the use or tone of such language

Generally speaking, irreverence is more a kidding kind of thing, while sarcasm has a tone of nastiness to it.

"Generally speaking, irreverence is more of a kidding kind of thing....."

Not by definition it isn't. I don't know about you, but I don't consider disrespecting someone as "kidding". And from what I was reading, and knowing the history, I don't think it was intended as such. But then, it is your thread, so I suppose you're allowed to "make up" your own rules, so as to not be one-upped.

Wink

Now, back to wheat.....
I'm off to purchase some Bob's Red Mill flour, and bake some cookies.
Would you like a cookie, Bob?

Your erroneous interpretations notwithstanding, irreverence, as a means of kidding someone, is what is intended. Your pit-bullish attention to spelling, literal definitions, etc., leans more towards the intent of sarcasm.

The reference is pointing out spelling errors when you have several spelling and punctuation errors in your own posts.

Yes, at Walmart and the major stores it is expensive.  Way more than flour.  I'm researching cheaper sources.  Bob of Bob's Red Mill must be doing better than okay!

Around here (metro ATL) the health food stores are even worse.

I can relate to your feelings about that,... I am a stickler as well.  I just don't feel like doing a search on all your past posts (or mine as a defensive matter) and proofreading them, so let's just let it go for now.

You and I both construct better sentences than average, and spell better than average, but neither of us are perfect in either regard.  I'll tolerate your 97% editorial accuracy if you will tolerate mine.
