Satire is a genre of literature, and sometimes graphic and performing arts, in which vices, follies, abuses, and shortcomings are held up to ridicule, ideally with the intent of shaming individuals, corporations, government or society itself, into improvement.[1] Although satire is usually meant to be humorous, its greater purpose is often constructive social criticism, using wit as a weapon and as a tool to draw attention to both particular and wider issues in society. A feature of satire is strong irony or sarcasm—"in satire, irony is militant"[2]—but parody, burlesque, exaggeration,[3] juxtaposition, comparison, analogy, and double entendre are all frequently used in satirical speech and writing. This "militant" irony or sarcasm often professes to approve of (or at least accept as natural) the very things the satirist wishes to attack. Satire is nowadays found in many artistic forms of expression, including literature, plays, commentary, television shows, and media such as lyrics. [more]

All the stories brim over with quaint humor, caustic sarcasm, and concealed contempt for male and matrimonial chains.--Philadelphia Ledger. Anne Warner (1869-1913) was the author of Susan Clegg and her Friend Mrs. Lathrop (1904), Susan Clegg and her Neighbors' Affairs (1906), Seeing France with Uncle John (1906), Susan Clegg and a Man in the House (1907) The Rejuvenation of Aunt Mary (1910) and Susan Clegg and her Love Affairs (1916). "Susan Clegg and Mrs. Lathrop were next-door neighbors and bosom friends. Their personalities were extremely congenial, and the theoretical relation which the younger woman bore to the elder was a further bond between them. Owing to the death of her mother some twenty years before, Susan had fallen into the position of a helpless and timid young girl whose only key to the problems of life in general had been the advice of her older and wiser neighbor."

Aloisia Kirschner (June 17, 1854 - February 10, 1934) was an Austrian novelist, born in Prague and favorably known under her pseudonym Ossip Schubin, which she borrowed from the novel Helena by Ivan Turgenev. Brought up on her parents' estate at Lochkov, she afterward spent several winters in Brussels, Paris, and Rome, receiving there, undoubtedly, many inspirations for her clever descriptions of artistic Bohemianism and international fashionable society, which were her favorite themes. An uncommonly keen observer, her great gift for striking characterization, frequently seasoned with sarcasm, is especially apparent in her delineations of the military and artistic circles in Austria-Hungary. She died in 1934 at Schloss Kosatek, Bohemia. [more]

British humour is a somewhat general term applied to certain comedic motifs that are often prevalent in humour in the United Kingdom and the British Commonwealth.[1] A strong theme of sarcasm and self-deprecation, often with deadpan delivery, runs throughout British humour.[2] Emotion is often buried under humour in a way that seems insensitive to other cultures.[3] Jokes are told about everything and almost no subject is taboo, though often a lack of subtlety when discussing controversial issues is considered crass.[4] Many UK comedy TV shows typical of British humour have been internationally popular, and have been an important channel for the export and representation of British culture to the international audience.

Laurie arrived at Junior High and strolled about as if it were her personal garden. She was happy, charming, the centre of the crowd. Carrie was a nerd whom she ordered to do her homework, but had her own agenda. She said 'no', but with a caveat; "I’ll do it with you, so that you can learn, but I’m not going home to run off two copies.” She made faces and inferences, and ignoring her sarcasm Carrie replied, “I know where you live, it’s only two blocks from my house. We leave school go to your house, do the homework and I’ll go home.” “Doesn’t sound fun,” she sneered. However, a week later, after her parents had grounded her, she came to Carrie with a blinding smile and a pack of biscuits and acting ever so warm said she had decided this was a good idea. Although Carrie didn't like anything about Laurie, she would be her entrance into the world of school royalty. For as the Best Friend of Queen Laurie she would no longer be a nerd, but a somebody.
