Example, this used to be proper protocol in an urgent situation--
Bob: "Joe, watch out for that large pothole you seem to be unknowingly driving into."
Joe: (avoiding pothole) “Thank you for your timely and straight-forward warning. I appreciate you using the first sentence after you were alerted to this danger to tell me about this pothole, instead of uttering a one-worded, useless phrase.”
Modern protocol, same situation--
Bob: (sarcastically) "Um..." Joe: “What?..... What?” (car drives into pothole)
Bob: “Wow, good job.”

In conversation, a word that announces one's contempt for and hostility toward the person they're about to contradict. Most common on the Internet, for obvious reasons.
Example:
Person 1: The first movie I ever saw in the theater was "Empire Strikes Back." Man, that was intense for a 6-year-old, so much larger than life. And when Darth Vader said "Luke, I am your father," I was freaking out. I'll never forget that day.
Person 2: Um, Vader never said that line.
