It's happened before. |

No, but they do this to my husband all the time because he's so sarcastic so much of the time! |

Of course, who hasn't experienced this? The only thing you can do is to emphasize that you're serious. |

It's usually the other way around. |

It's 'are', isn't it? I might be wrong.
Anyway, yes, because I'm usually being sarcastic. |

Yes, but only very rarely. |

I think it happens more often that they think I'm sincere when I'm being sarcastic. |

Yes, and vice versa as well. |

I guess it's the snarl that makes the difference. |

I think so. I think many people think some of the things I say are just too extreme to be serious. But I come to my positions from simple logic starting from what I think are solid premises. I usually (though not always) mean what I say quite literally. |

It's the other way around. I wish there was a sister survey.
People assume I'm sincere when I'm being sarcastic. |

Yes, because most of the time I am sarcastic. People don't usually expect me to be serious. |

Yes, but usually when they are feeling insecure. |

Yes, I think so. I have been asked if I was being sarcastic when I wasn't, so I guess that would be a yes. |
