For Reference

Facetiousness is not sarcasm or satire. It is flippant but information cannot be inferred as there is no subtext. The primary benefit of reading something facetious as opposed to something sarcastic or satirical is that it reveals the context of the reader, not the context of the writer. If you are offended by a word or idea, I invite you to take them less seriously, as they are facetious, but understand if you do not wish to read any further. If you are offended by an inference, you have nobody to blame but your preconceptions, which I invite you to take joy in challenging.
