SoI googled IYI (no irony there), and this prickly piece was my find du jour: https://medium.com/incerto/the-intellectual-yet-idiot-13211e2d0577. Youch.

Yeah thats the one. There's another one on how to beat an IYI its so funny. https://www.mergersandinquisitions.com/how-to-beat-the-intellectual-yet-idiot/
I saw that link too but after the first one wasn't sure if I had the courage to read another in the same sitting! Waiting for my SAM (Sarcasm Appreciation Mechanism) to build up again after the loss of my draft 😜😜
Thanks for reading the first one. Have you found some good ways of SAMMING?
Not consistently reliable ones, no...otherwise as a fan of satire I look for the telltale signs of the sarcasmer looking for credit for wit. Then as a sarcasmee I can be (more) ready for the slash. I never intend to grow a thick skin. That gets in the way of empathy, so a certain number of ouches per week go with the territory.
WOW that is quite a scientific approach. 😃
More intuitive than scientific, I assure you. That's why I have my fair share of sarcasm scars!
I wonder what a sarcasm tattoo would look like. Random thought. 🙂
