Croquet stares at him before hesitantly guessing/suggesting that maybe kids are into baseball.

SarcasmBlind characters in FanWorks.
----
[[AC:{{Crossover}}s]]
* Cloud Kicker in ''Fanfic/AceCombatTheEquestrianWar'' acts like that at times.
* [[Franchise/TheLegendOfZelda Princess Zelda]] sometimes shows signs of this in ''Fanfic/PaperMarioX''. Example from chapter 41:
-->'''Koopatrol:''' Oh, would you like to be in the quiz?!\\
'''Zelda:''' OH... a quiz? It's a good test for my wisdom--\\
'''Koopatrol:''' I WAS SARCASTIC! We only need one person!

[[AC:''WesternAnimation/AdventureTime'']]
* In ''Fanfic/HalfPastAdventure'', [[BrainUploading Dr. Minerva Campbell]] appears to have trouble registering sarcasm, interpreting a joking comment about someone who's taking too long in the bathroom as a request to send out a search party.

[[AC:''Manga/DeathNote'']]
* ''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7292991/1/Xanatos Xanatos]]'' gives us Linda[[note]]You know, that girl from Wammy's House who appeared in a panel the size of a postage stamp[[/note]], who, while not ''totally'' ignorant of it, at least needs to be told when someone is being facetious. [[RuleOfFunny Naturally]], she interacts a lot with [[DeadpanSnarker Matt]].

[[AC:''Franchise/DragonBall'']]
* Goku in Creator/TeamFourStar's ''WebVideo/DragonBallZAbridged'' series, among [[IdiotHero other problems]], fails to understand sarcasm. Best demonstrated after he asks Piccolo if he’s a [[Franchise/SuperMarioBros Yoshi]] and Piccolo says yes:
-->'''Raditz:''' Now, disregarding the Namekian...\\
'''Goku:''' Nu-uh, the Yoshi.\\
'''Piccolo:''' I'm not a goddamn Yoshi!\\
'''Goku:''' But you said you were?\\
'''Piccolo:''' It's called sarcasm!!\\
'''Goku:''' What's that taste like?\\
'''Piccolo:''' DAMMIT GOKU!!!

[[AC:''VideoGame/FridayNightFunkin'']]
* In ''[[WebAnimation/FridayNightFunkinWithLyrics Garcello WITH LYRICS]]'' by [=RecD=], Boyfriend and Girlfriend attempt to console Annie after she finds out about Garcello's death. Annie's frustrated sarcasm is lost on Boyfriend.
-->'''Girlfriend:''' He told us a lot.\\
'''Boyfriend:''' And he wanted me to tell you that... you helped him be at peace before the cigarettes took him.\\
'''Annie:''' Oh, OK, that makes me feel a lot better.\\
'''Boyfriend:''' Really?\\
'''Annie:''' ''No!'' Of course it doesn't!

[[AC:''Franchise/HarryPotter'']]
* ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/3545676/3/Family-Counseling-With-the-Dursleys Family Counseling With the Dursleys]]'':
-->'''Harry:''' I was hiding out here so that no stupid oafs would come over and talk to me. But I guess my plan was foiled.\\
'''Dudley:''' Why? Who found you?
* In ''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/8243003/58/Gypsy-Caravan Gypsy Caravan]]'' Barty Crouch Jr. comments on how hard he's been trying to stay out of Voldemort's way when the latter is busy, prompting Snape to offer to bring a book next time he's called and Crouch to reply that that would be lovely and sincerely thank him. Snape's final thought as he departs is that sarcasm is wasted on the insane.
* In ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/13677220/10/Harry-Potter-and-the-Angry-Grim-Reaper Harry Potter and the Angry Grim Reaper]]'', Ron insists that Harry can't be the ''real'' Harry Potter since he doesn't have the scar or glasses.
-->'''Harry:''' What did you say your name was again? Bilious? Well, gosh, you're right, Bilious, you caught me out. My real name isn't Harry James Potter, it's actually Fool Foodchomper. Come on, Hermione, let's go.\\
'''Ron:''' I ''knew'' it!

[[AC:''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'']]
* ''Fanfic/{{Anthropology}}'': Lyra does not understand sarcasm, and actually has to be informed when someone is being sarcastic with her. Example from chapter 23:
--->'''Lyra:''' I was reading that history book you gave me and it said that America had been in wars. A lot of them, actually.\\
'''Paul:''' News flash. I've never heard that before.\\
'''Lyra:''' So... It wasn't true? I mean, if there had really been so many, you would have heard--\\
'''Paul:''' That was sarcasm, Lyra.
* A rather non-humorous example from ''Canterlot Consequences'' from, surprisingly enough [[TheSmartGirl Twilight]]. [[TheWoobie Twilight]] has placed all blame for her fallout with her brother on herself, and none on Shining Armor. When Luna remarks that yes, Twilight should be condemned for losing her temper in the heat of the moment while Shining should be condoned for the same thing, [[ItsAllMyFault Twilight]] agrees, having completely missed Luna's sarcasm. Luna and Cadance are forced to be a bit more direct to convince Twilight to stop blaming herself.
%%* [[spoiler:Prince Blueblood]] in ''Fanfic/TheVinylScratchTapes'':
%%-->'''Octavia:''' Still as good at detecting sarcasm as you ever were...\\
%%'''[[spoiler:Blueblood]]:''' Oh... Well, thank you for the compliment.\\
%%'''Octavia:''' No, I was being... Ugh, you know what, never mind.

[[AC:''Series/OddSquad'']]
* In ''Fanfic/ShipsAhoy'', Olive and Oscar help [[Series/{{Zoboomafoo}} the Kratt Brothers and Zoboomafoo]] with a striped scarf preventing visitors from coming to Animal Junction. While attempting to stop the scarf, Oscar accidentally turns Zoboomafoo and every other lemur in existence into a jelly baby using the Candy-inator gadget, and he comes to the horrid realization that since there's no "Unzap All" setting, he and Olive have to go and unzap every lemur themselves. Olive responds with sarcasm that flies over his head.
-->'''Olive:''' ''[groans]'' Well, let's fix Zoboomafoo first. I wasn't planning on sleeping tonight, anyhow.\\
'''Oscar:''' Really?\\
'''Olive:''' No, Oscar, that was sarcasm.\\
'''Oscar:''' Oh.
