    “It’s sarcasm, Josh.”

    “Sarcasm?”

    “It’s from the Greek, sarkasmos. To bite the lips. It means that you aren’t really saying what you mean, but people will get your point. I invented it, Bartholomew named it.”

    “There you go, you got it.”

    “Got what?”

    “Sarcasm.”

    “Sure you did.”

    “Is that sarcasm?”

    “Irony, I think.”

    “What’s the difference?”

    “I haven’t the slightest idea.”

    “So you’re being ironic now, right?”

    “If you have come to these pages for laughter, may you find it.
    If you are here to be offended, may your ire rise and your blood boil.
    If you seek an adventure, may this song sing you away to blissful escape.
    If you need to test or confirm your beliefs, may you reach comfortable conclusions.
    All books reveal perfection, by what they are or what they are not.
    May you find that which you seek, in these pages or outside them.
    May you find perfection, and know it by name.”
    Christopher Moore, Lamb: The Gospel According to Biff, Christ’s Childhood Pal

Specialization is for insects.”
