OK so John mentioned having a sense humor as being helpful during his 
recent battle ... what about sarcasm? I'm not talking about mean 
spiteful comments but something a bit more benign. In a recent 
conversation with a friend she was lamenting about her current life 
situation and how things seemed like they would never change. Repeating 
the same mistakes is the reoccurring theme here ... My response was "So 
hows that been working out for you ... I mean how many times do you need 
to pick up a hot brick before you realize that it's hot!" It seems like 
healthy self assured people usually accept it better than those with a 
fragile personality. BTW: If you believe what you read on the internet 
(and I don't) the general consensus is that sarcasm is the tool of a 
bitter person.

Any opinions about well placed sarcasm?
