Guhwha? I don't get it. Is the arrow a sarcasm? Is the "a sarcasm" a sarcasm? What is a sarcasm? Is this a sarcasm? I don't think hyperbole is an effective method of illustrating sarcasm, no sir. Most certainly not. More certainly than this may or may not be confusing. What was I talking about?

You find silver and Syntax confusing? I guess that would explain a lot...
