Sarcasm + Cynicism = Sardonic...ism. Or something.

Recently, I have seen a lot of people posting the same chain letter/ status thing on Facebook, and it keeps going on and on... While some chain letters can be tolerable the first couple times, most of them get very annoying VERY quickly... especially when the said letters are wrong in so many ways, and no one bothers to correct them. Not to be a grammar Nazi, but sometimes the stupidity of America infuriates me... so I offered my humble opinion on the subject.
The chain letter:
"POKE me if youever had a crush on me. LIKE this status if you think I`m a goodfriend. MESSAGE me if you ever wanted to date me. COMMENT me if we ever had good memories together. Now lets see whos brave enough to set this as their status."
My slightly altered version:
"POKE me if youever had a malfunctioning space bar. LIKE this status if you think I`m a bit dodgy with apostrophes. MESSAGE me if you ever wanted me to stop raping my shift key. COMMENT me if we ever had good memories of prepositions actually being used. Now lets see whos brave enough to use proper grammar."
So I posted it as my status, and waited for the angry comments to start flooding in. Surprisingly, there were none as of yet, though I realized that there still was a bit of sarcastic fun to be had with my sister Jamie (in the friendliest way possible).
Jamie's comment: ON, ABOVE, TO, FROM, WITH! ;D
(By this, she was making a reference to my comment about prepositions.)
My reply: Oh my, Jamie... a grammar joke? Only the most pompous life-form would even think to make such a haughty conjecture toward the more humble members of society such as myself who may or may not have experienced certain complications with their schooling. We are only human. Shame on you.
Jamie: haha nahh beetch! i did thaa whi' you wuz sittin' right thar. on tha sturs, nigs. ;p
Me: I know not of the "nigs" of which you speak, myself not being up to date with the current "ghetto lingo" of the "home-dogs" you associate yourself with, though I trust you have received my most recent message on the importance of human equality. Most humans are not quite as intelligent as I may or may not be. These petty insults have gone too far. We must take pity on them.
...
Gremmerzz SUX! Sarcasm FTW. lol XDDD
I apologize. Perhaps my sarcasm goes too far. I don't wish to offend anyone...
Though sarcasm is so much fun, even when people use it at my expense. XD
Just let it roll right off your shoulders. :"3
