Things That Make Me Happy: Snark

As should be obvious to all who read this blog, I love a snarky comment.  I am not, however, a fan of mean spirited put-downs (which, after consulting dictionary.com, is actually the definition of snarky.  Oops.)  What I enjoy is good, light-hearted snark like I found on my hairspray bottle.  Perhaps technically, it's sarcasm.  Whatever.

Aussome Volume Hair Spray

In case you can't read it, it says:
DIRECTIONS:  It's hair spray.  You spray it on your hair.

Love it!

And I agree, snark isn't mean-spirited. According to Urban Dictionary, it means, "A witty mannerism, personality, or behavior that is a combination of sarcasm and cynicism. Usually accepted as a complimentary term. Snark is sometimes mistaken for a snotty or arrogant attitude." I like that definition much better.

I am definitely using your definition! It's perfect.
