What is sarcasm?

Sarcasm is poisonous words when you don't have respect for somebody

A person attends a sporting event, and a storm delays the event. A person might say, sarcastically." Glad the weather is cooperating". It is sarcastic, but fun, not disrespectful. There are of course times when sarcasm is meant to be acerbic, but it need not be.

I'm always against sarcasm. It implies bitterness on the part of the speaker, and I think demonstrating bitterness is disrespectful of listeners, because there is kind of a double standard there. I'm sure the speaker doesn't want to be around bitter, sarcastic people all the time, but they act that way, because it puts them in an aggrieved posture, which people usually can't tolerate in others, but are sometimes more than willing to demonstrate in themselves.
