Sarcasm..No More

A better friend at IRMA told me how I was not doing any good with my sarcasm. And with the prospect of my folks coming to IRMA at convocation and being introduced to fellow participants who would not number more than ten as friends made me think twice on this issue.
At the same time this conversation was being played out on IP, on another IP pop up I received a thumbs up on a sarcastic comment made on a friend outside the mess this evening. I had trouble recalling the incident. But when I did, I realised it was not meant to be a statement worth remembering..But someone did. And the advice did make sense.
Sarcasm somehow is addictive. So addictive that I walked into my Dad's hospital room immediately post his operation and joked how the next time it would be clean bowled and straight to the top for him...No intermediaries in the form of doctors.
Well, I guess its a comma if not a full stop to my sarcasm at IRMA.
Made enough people crib about it..
The stage is all yours Uphar (That was the last bit of sarcasm)!!!!
Adios

NP says the stage is all mine. I guess I will have to jump in, I have no options as the Houdini himself commands.
Moves me to tears when he says he is fed up of making people crib. Moves me even more when he says he wants to introduce more than ten friends to his parents in convocation. What noble thoughts invigorate this noble soul...
I will eagerly wait to watch his 'antics' at trying to make people sing love songs to him and not crib!!!
The flimsiness of the excuse would make a tattered rug of a beggar tear itself to threads out of shame.
I choose to let him reflect and decide for himself if what he decided was worth it. If not I would expect him to retract and make the coma really small. While promising that I for one will continue to speak straight and bitter.
*Come up with it in your next post NP: What desperations drive you? Or is it just your ideological affliations which convince you to quit everytime a semblance of a difficulty comes your way?

Miss You. I will pray for your corrupt departed soul.
