Does A. Einstein intimidate my readers :) ?

My favourite:
-- I find television very educating. Every time somebody turns on the set, I go into the other room and read a book.
-- I refuse to join any club that would have me as a member.
(a rare self-sarcastic remark)
-- Here's to our wives and girlfriends! May they never meet!
(Sarcasm towards hypocrisy)
-- I remember the first time I had sex… I kept the receipt.
(Self sarcasm)
-- A black cat crossing your path signifies that the animal is going somewhere.
(Sarcasm towards superstitious beliefs)

under 'sarcasm' or just funny; 'sarcasm' always needs a target, as it is a piercing arrow.
