Description:

I posted this as a response to Jackdanyell's "Sarcasm for Dummies" video instead of one of the earlier Embracing Criticism videos in the series, because his is one of my all time favorites, and at the heart of this video is my frustration with the who people don't seem to be able get the joke. I mean, I can handle someone not thinking the bit is funny or clever but when people start to argue with this clearly absurd stuff in the video as if it's real I can't get my mind around how they must be thinking. It's a bit like talking back to the TV or a movie. "Get out of the way!Why didn't you hide I told you Jason was behind you...stupid!" To fair most people do get it but a lot don't and it baffles me.

Intelligent black people scare people ha ha ha True what you said about people, that's why I attached to JackDanyells video "Sarcasm for Dummies-A Guide" he really breaks it down for them.

Xelander, first of all some people don't get satire (it's a learning disability). Second, some people are so stupid they think there was an internet 250 years ago, and these same people will not understand the words "sardonic" nor "lampoon". You might have to draw them a picture. Finally, possibly none of this matters; the bottom line is you're an intelligent black guy and that's the scariest thing imaginable.

I am not trying to make excuses for them cause that would be close to impossible. If anyone has watched videos on you tube for any length of time they should realize not all videos are what they appear to be. So, actually listening to what is said would be a good idea instead of automatically getting angry.

I spoke to a girl last night and she asked; if you would call me an apple every day for the coming 52 weeks. Will I turn into an apple then? I said; no, because I`ve been calling you pretty for the last two years now. - You see, Xelander.. not every apple is a pear and not every black man drinks lemonade. Hope I cleared that out.
