There is a fine line between sarcasm and irony. If you want to learn the art of putting people in their place with sharp, destructive judgment (sarcasm), the first thing to do is learn to show trust, not arrogance. Learn to laugh at yourself, joke subtly and not be rude, crossing the line of ridicule.
Instructions
Step 1
Read more fiction, watch documentaries and comedy shows, expand your horizons and vocabulary. The sarcasm of a stupid person is not sarcasm, but a pathetic attempt to attract attention that always ends in failure. You yourself have noticed that the jokes of narrow-minded people are notable for their shallowness, vulgarity and boredom.
Step 2
Sarcasm should be used with caution, otherwise it will only cause confusion and rejection of others. Friends will begin to shy away from you for fear of being "stung" for nothing. And someone will start to hate you. To masterfully master sarcasm, you must first train your sense of humor. After all, people who simply give out poisonous phrases, criticize without humor, look mean, repulsive and annoying.
Step 3
Become original and fun. Don't repeat yourself. A subtly noticed detail is always engraved in the memory for a long time. There is no need to revert to your joke if it caused a strong positive reaction.
Step 4
Remain calm and calm. A sarcastic statement made with a completely deep and serious expression on your face will be very powerful. Say funny things as if you are a TV announcer, without hiccupping, without suppressing chuckles, clearly articulating your sharp thought.
Step 5
Don't abuse your talent. If sarcasm is constantly abundant in your speech, chances are your conversation circle will rapidly decrease. Stay good-natured in your ridicule and people will feel comfortable and fun around you.
Step 6
Make sure the person you are talking to understands that you are not being serious. Be creative with your approach. Use your body language. Follow the rule: never say "Joke!", Reveal your sarcasm either with a smile, or a grimace, or a wink.
Step 7
Use sarcasm at the right time and place. With a caustic utterance, it is easy to offend a loved one, alienate a best friend, injure parents, or piss off a boss. Smart people remember your statements for a very long time, especially if they are close to the truth. Take water in your mouth for a minute when you should be silent.
