Sarcasm alert

Patrick Leer

In response to Shawn Miller’s Oct. 4 letter, “I want to be Leer,” please let me apologize to you Mr. Miller. I obviously overestimated your ability to recognize sarcasm. The inspiration behind my letter was Albert Farr’s Sept. 8 letter “It takes a huge person to be a Christian,” in which Mr. Farr is seemingly angry because there are actually people around who don’t think and act like him.

There have been a number of letters along this same line of thought over the past few weeks, and I find it ludicrous that they want everyone to be like them. I figured my letter was ridiculous enough and you would realize I wasn’t serious. Next time, I’ll write everything out in simple terms to avoid confusing and upsetting you.
