In short - an extraordinary mind and fear.
People who can sprinkle poison in the form of a joke have a high level of intelligence. They have a large vocabulary, they are able to think abstractly, instantly assess the situation and weaknesses of the opponent. They are also more emotionally stable. Obviously, for the same reason - their sharp mind and ability to understand people perfectly allows them to quickly navigate situations and conduct complex dialogues.
⠀
But if you remember that "sarcasm" in translation from Greek means "to tear the flesh", then the question arises: why does a person have the need to wound the interlocutor with a word? And not to say directly, but to disguise it as a joke?
⠀
This happens when it is impossible to say as it is, when you are internally not free. Sarcasm is, as a rule, suppressed emotions, some inferiority, which does not allow you to relax and calmly say that you are not satisfied. It happens that this goes back to childhood, when parents communicated in this way in the family, not being able to openly resolve conflicts. The child grows up in moral stress, is afraid to speak openly and learns to deliver verbal punches himself.
⠀
How to protect yourself from sarcasm?
Try to bring the person to a calm conversation directly if the aggressor is your loved one who practices this style of communication. Saying that it hurts you and asking what is really wrong in your relationship.
⠀
And if the hairpin flew in one-time, in the company of friends or colleagues, then do not get involved in emotions, keep silent or laugh it off. But if you feel that you are being pissed off, a good way to knock off the aggressor's aim is to admit that he is right:
- Oh, this is just the dress of the year! Applying for Haute Couture Week?
- Yes, that's right, following trends is not my thing.
