Trivia Fact of The Day 1/12/17

Crazy Word Origin Week!!!


Day 2...." Sarcasm"


I'm generally regarded as a sarcastic, smart-ass curmudgeon by most of my closest relations.  Appropriately, today's word is "Sarcasm".  No really, it's realllllly interesting!

Sarcasm comes from the Greek word Sarkazein which literally means "Tear Flesh".







So when I'm inevitably called a sarcastic tool this week.I'll take it as if I am not unlike a medieval spiked flail.  No, really.  I'm like that.
