    I grew up a smart kid who loved science, history, and classical music with a strong rebellious streak in the bible belt. This explains it all.

    My dad had us watch Monty Python and the Princess Bride and we listened to Dr. Demento Christmas cds. The song "the pretty little dolly" by Mona Abboud sticks out most to me. Yup. Mix in some therapy and psychologists picking my brain and that's it in a nutshell. :D

    Sarcasm. It is not the lowest form of wit but a lost verbal art form that I intend to take ever opportunity to revive.

    Some of the greatest minds of our time used sarcasm to make a valid point

    My childhood was filled with sarcasm, innuendo and heated debates about every taboo subject available. I miss those days. I hate the "Oh I am so offended by your words" mentality that seems so prevalent today.

    Pull on your big girl/boy panties and come back at me with a valid argument, stop hiding behind your shield of ignorance and super sensitivity and grow a pair.

    These glorious insults are from an era before the English language got boiled down to 4-letter words

    A member of Parliament to Disraeli: "Sir, you will either die on the gallows or of some unspeakable disease.""That depends, Sir," said Disraeli, "whether I embrace your policies or your mistress."·

    "He had delusions of adequacy." - Walter Kerr·

    "He has all the virtues I dislike and none of the vices I admire." - Winston Churchill ·

    "I have never killed a man, but I have read many obituaries with great pleasure." Clarence Darrow·

    "He has never been known to use a word that might send a reader to the dictionary." - William Faulkner (about Ernest Hemingway).

    "Thank you for sending me a copy of your book; I'll waste no time reading it." - Moses Hadas·

    "I didn't attend the funeral, but I sent a nice letter saying I approved of it." - Mark Twain

    "He has no enemies, but is intensely disliked by his friends.." - Oscar Wilde·

    "I am enclosing two tickets to the first night of my new play; bring a friend, if you have one." - George Bernard Shaw to Winston Churchill "Cannot possibly attend first night, will attend second .... if there is one." - Winston Churchill, in response.·

    "I feel so miserable without you; it's almost like having you here." - Stephen Bishop·

    "He is a self-made man and worships his creator." - John Bright·

    "I've just learned about his illness. Let's hope it's nothing trivial." - Irvin S. Cobb·

    "He is not only dull himself; he is the cause of dullness in others." - Samuel Johnson·

    "He is simply a shiver looking for a spine to run up." - Paul Keating·

    "In order to avoid being called a flirt, she always yielded easily." - Charles, Count Talleyrand·

    "He loves nature in spite of what it did to him." - Forrest Tucker·

    "Why do you sit there looking like an envelope without any address on it?" - Mark Twain

    "His mother should have thrown him away and kept the stork." - Mae West

    "Some cause happiness wherever they go; others, whenever they go." - Oscar Wilde·

    "He uses statistics as a drunken man uses lamp-posts... for support rather than illumination." - Andrew Lang (1844-1912)·

    "He has Van Gogh's ear for music." - Billy Wilder ·

    "I've had a perfectly wonderful evening. But this wasn't it." - Groucho Marx

    Those made me laugh.

    And kudos for ending with Groucho. I forgot to include the Marx Brothers as a very important part of my formative years.

    Apparently, they can be bought or stolen, so when you find one you like ...

    I've never had one, so I killed several strangers and stole theirs and sewed them all together and now I have a beautiful personality suit and everyone loves me and I'm oh so popular.
