@rickhasen The surprise is not that Justice Scalia is more sarcastic than other Justices. But how much more. He's in his own league.

@rickhasen The other surprise is how much the other justices are similar to one another. -
@_R_S_S_@rickhasen "similar" how? they have styles and different tones -
@JoePaulson2@rickhasen similar, as in the differences among each other is small (according to the graph). -
@JoePaulson2@rickhasen It's possible their differences would be more pronounced without Scalia in the graph.

@rickhasen What surprised me most in my sarcasm study is not Scalia at #1 but Stevens at #2 in absolute numbers, not in Index, where he's #5Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

@rickhasen@SCOTUSblog Alito is being sarcastic all the same ... he also is getting laughs (often via sarcastic comments) at orals -
.
@JoePaulson2@SCOTUSblog my study was confined to comments about written opinions, not statements at oral argument -
@rickhasen point taken but the headlines and talk of "sarcastic justice" (full stop) is a bit misleading

I am no one to condemn
#sarcasm.@rickhasen But I try hard to observe the rule to "only punch UP" when mocking.#Scalia -
@Clarknt67@rickhasen My fantasy SCOTUS lineup: 8 Ginsburgs + 1 Scalia.. for the steady stream of spittle-laden/entertaining dissents.
