SAN FRANCISCO MAN BECOMES FIRST AMERICAN TO GRASP
SIGNIFICANCE OF SARCASM.
Chuck Fullmer, 38, yesterday became the first American to get to grips with the
concept of sarcasm. "It was weird" Fullmer said. "I was in London and like,
talking to this guy and it was raining and he pulled a face and said, "Great
weather eh?" and I thought - "Wait a minute, no way is it great weather".
Fullmer
then realised that the other man's 'mistake' was in fact deliberate.
Fullmer,
who is 39 next month and married with two children, aged 8 and
3, plans to use sarcasm himself in future. "I'm, like, using it all the time" he
said. "Last weekend I was grilling steaks and I burned them and I said "Hey,
great weather."
