This video, from "the onion", also uses a great sense of satirical humour with sarcasm. Using nascar as the centre of the sarcasm. in the video, the actors are very serious and this helps a lot with the sarcastic aspect of the video, as though the video is sarcastic, but the actors in the video themselves are not being sarcastic.
