    Agree, loads of sarcasm in the UK, together with its more mature relative satire. I would argue that satire is great, whereas mere sarcasm can be entertaining but never reaches greatness

    Yeah, in most of provinces in Indonesia, sarcasm does exist. It is common, but in certain area with people who speaks politely, it can be a damn hell for those with sarcasm. It is not great at all, too much sarcasm make people kill easily around here.

    I use sarcasm quite a lot. I'm British and many of us use sarcasm heavily. However one has to be careful as it can be quite hurtful if used nastily. I find the best way to get around this is to be as sarcastic about myself as I am about others.

    Yes definitely prevalent in the UK. (I really wanted to write "I've never met Sarcasm" since you write it as a proper noun but thought that was a little obvious ha ha)
