Am I being sarcastic;? I agree with Josh. We need a new punctuation mark to indicate sarcasm; I say this because it would help me communicate with many of the irony-challenged non-regular readers of this weblog who sometimes find themselves lost in this obscure corner of the blogosphere.

It is a struggle to communicate without tone of voice all my thoughts upon reading this post. I guess that is the point, no?
I’ll try.
He is NOT serious.
Umm, wouldn’t a punctuation mark to indicate sarcasm return the sarcasm to the realm of the literal and therefore defeat its purpose????
Umm, oh.
Never mind.

Was he serious or sarcastic with his suggestion?
;If we had a punctuation mark to let us know, we could not have to wonder;
Until then, we’ll have to ; ) do something else, wink-wink. (just joking)
