Sarcasm is the lowest form of wit since its aim is to belittle or hurt someone,
and to laugh at their expense;
we associate the word "cutting" with it.
On the other hand, true wit associates with the word "levity",
and boosts everyone's spirits, being aimed at an action, a happening or an attitude.
Mary Purnell
It has finally happened.
I have offended someone.
As you know, this blog is an attempt to view my life with my teenage daughters through humor -and yes, I very often poke fun at my own family; knowing I am treading a very thin line between humor and sarcasm in order to do it.
But my sarcasm should never involve my daughters' friends.
I apologize to my daughter, her friend, and her family.
I'm sorry that - in my attempt to get a laugh - I exaggerated the truth behind a story, and I hope you can find it in your heart to forgive me.
