Sarcasm

Last night I had a nightmare that has been haunting me. For some reason I was living at home with my parents. I was working as a cop in Jim Thorpe. And the worst part was I didn't have the ability to be sarcastic.

Needless to say being a cop in Jim Thorpe living with my parents is pretty much my worst nightmare. But not being able to be sarcastic made me defenseless. I guess most shrinks would say sarcasm is bad. We should confront the things we don't like honestly and try to change them. Sarcasm is a passive aggressive way to mask our true hurts; therefore not really healing them.

Still, I like being sarcastic. In my dream, when I couldn't be sarcastic I felt so weak. I felt almost suicidal, not because of my situation, but because I couldn't see a way out of it; even if that was just a quip. I think sarcasm is an expression of hope. No matter how bad things get I know I will alway be able to have a comeback. That gives me hope.
