The Sarcastic Brain

I thought this was very interesting, considering that the use of sarcasm is one of my primary methods of operation:

"Shamay-Tsoory believes that, apart from brain injury, perhaps even subtle differences in the 'wiring' of this region can leave people unable to empathize with others, and it is this lack of ascertaining another's emotional state that may be responsible for the inability to understand sarcasm."

I think I might even have extra wiring, or something.
