Why must intelligent people be so sarcastic?
The more inteligent they think they are, the more they feel they must assert this inteligence at every available opportunity. if they cant agree fine, then discuss it and answer the question, dont go off on random tangents about the stupididty of the question. if the question is so stupid, then it should be pretty easy to answer right?

ok, im done now, just wanted to point this out.

I'd disagree, im very sarcastic (all you have to do for proof of that is to look at my movie review page) but i'm not all that intelligent, especially.

Well presumably he believes it is easy to answer, and that the person asking is stupid for not knowing it.

Agreed Decius.

The most seemingly arrogant person is the most insecure. If someone is truly confident they never have to say it or call anyone else down.

as my friend puts it, i am a "sarcastic bastard" and hes right on mostly. i usually dont lay it on to thick until ive known a person for a while. i love people who are witty and sarcastic, they seem more lively to me. i dont think its right to use it to hurt peoples feelings, but occasionally it gets interpreted incorrectly.

When certain things come naturally to you, you may not know that others have hard times with those things, and when they ask you a question that you think is a given, then the questions often come across as sarcasm. IMO

given, sarcasim is great fun. but it gets irritating when every other thing you say is thown back at you. i would agree its a security issue, also a dominance thing. they feel all high and superior when they can put themselves above someone else.

i've met people who most definity arnt intelligent and yet are sarcastic, but they're few, and they're sarcasim is generally shallow, stupid, and mean. but then thats just my opinion

It depends who you are sarcastic with. If they're sarcastic and secure it's not a trust issue... it's a funny issue. I have one friend in particular, we are both sarcastic with each other and it's hilarious. Neither one of us do it to call the other one down, we just know it will make the other one laugh.
