Q&A for How to Enhance Your Sarcasm Skills

You can react to an insult by agreeing completely with the insulting person. For example, "You are so fat.". You answer, "You are so right. I am so fat. So terribly, ridiculously fat. Thanks for pointing that out.". You can also be sarcastic by asking for more information. Continue asking questions about the words they use until they get tired of answering.

Attitude is not something you build, but it comes from anger, hate, and a little bit of jealousy. It should not be used to harm anyone. Attitude is extremely powerful and can lower a person's self esteem.

Because some people do not know what true sarcasm is. It is when you make a witty remark about something that is obviously not true. Such as, "Wow! A car! You don't see that every day!" Sarcasm should not be mean.

Pretend you don't know the person is using sarcasm. If the person says, "You're so smart," for example, just say, "Thank you!"

Be patient with yourself, analyse contextual and social clues to determine the meaning of a sentence. Practice with a close friend and maybe try to be sarcastic yourself. Anyway, people in the spectrum usually have sense of humour that could be considered sarcastic, as sometimes oversimplified and obvious answers are considered funny and sarcastic. My advice is to embrace you sense of humour and the ones that you like and give yourself time to learn and practice. Keep it up!

There are a couple of different ways, one being more subtle and the other being more obvious. If somebody says, "You're an idiot," then a more subtle jab would be, "Takes one to know one, now we can start Club Idiot together. Have a good day!" If someone says, "Those shoes are ugly," then a more obvious response could be, "Oh, wow! Thank you very much for your opinion! It matters so much to me; I've been waiting for it all day!".
