FabSwingers.com forum: How to determine if you're an arse.

Communicating via the medium of text can, at times, be very difficult.

Wit,dry humour and sarcasm can easily be misinterpreted..even with the use of funny emojis, and I've frequently had people confused or believing that I'm being offensive when I'm actually trying to have a little banter!

BUT! How do I know or you know, it's just you being an arse and not them misinterpreting!! Discuss if you can be arsed.

Is there a disclaimer box I can tick to indicate I could give a shit if I come over as sarccy twat,,,,,,

It took me years to develop this level of irreverent twat-ness

The written word, the greatest form of (mis)communication.

Some people get me, some are not sure and some don't. It's expected.

This is one of my big fears. Even emoji's don't always help as they can be used ironically or sarcastically. It's a bloody minefield! I often click send on a message and just pray the other person gets my sense of humour. I seem to spend too much time just sitting anxiously waiting on replies on something I've said. It's so much easier talking to someone face to face.

Say something back that's equally sarcastic. If they take offense they're an arse. If they play along they're all good. If they escalate then you've found a keeper.

I'm generally an arse, with occasional slips of rationality.

Put a happy face or lol after everything you say. Even if you something really offensive or insulting of you put a lol at the end no one can be annoyed

Arseholes can disguise themselves at first behind irony and sarcasm but it doesn't take too long for the actual arse to appear...I rode my nobel stead onto a thread to rescue a fellow forumite from a real life actual arse a couple of days ago, a white knightess, but does that now make me an arse?

If the clique does exist, I imagine there are arses within it and outside of it equally.

Some people, get me and some don't.

That's life really.

I'm the first to admit, that I can be a complete arse at times. Other times, I'm just misunderstood.
