Are you missing a portion of your Right BRAIN
Neurophysiologist Katherine Rankin at the University of California, San Francisco, has also recently discovered that sarcasm, which is both positively funny and negatively nasty, plays an important part in human social interaction.
So what?....don't you have anything better to do that read this??
According to Dr. Rankin, if you didn't get the sarcastic tone of the previous sentences you must have some damage to your parahippocampal gyrus which is located in the right brain. People with dementia, or head injuries in that area, often loose the ability to pick up on sarcasm, and so they don't respond in a socially appropriate ways. Others with the same type injuries and diseases can also swing wildy to the other end of the spectrum by using sarcasm in improper settings and are more likely to be socially inept and immature indealings with others.
