I'm going to accept these points of view as a Brit thing.

You see, you're discussing occurrences and mixing them in with how
locutions are used in speech--whether the speech is written or oral.

The definitions which have been liberally quoted from authorized
sources in this thread are concerned with writing styles and speech
locutions. Big difference there, also.

Main thing: give a clear signal to your potential listeners whether
you are speaking sarcastically, ironically, or just in joking banter.

And that's where we came in, with Tony's sarcastic answer in re the
Suggestion for HTML templates. <friendly smile>
