mirmohamadCould you please explain to me the meaning of the above sentence?

The speaker is frequently sarcastic.

Clive · Answer

I see it as this.
.
I have never pretended to be sarcastic.

It seems a rather odd thing to say.

Mirmohamad · Answer

Hi there;
Please explain more about your answer.

Clive · Answer

'Pretend' is another word for 'fake'.

Do you know what the word 'sarcasm' means? Is there a word in your native language that has the same meaning?

I think it is probably a humorous play on "faked an ******".

I suppose so, unless the speaker is being ironic of course ...

This would have to be a joke because "faking a sarcasm" makes no sense in English.  The speaker is playing on the phrase "faking an _rgasm."
