stfu fags dramatic is the best




Posted by WillisGreeny

Only fags vote for dramatic irony, so how do you expect to get more votes? Simple science :) . Situational, all the way!




Posted by Shade

Add cosmic irony to the poll, fag.




Posted by The Judge

That'd be situational, stupid.

I DON'T ****ING KNOW, OKAY?!

The kind where you realize I pissed in your coffee.

Quoted post: That'd be situational, stupid.


not really. Cosmic would be like a conductor losing his hearing, whereas Situational would be like how CNN advertised their program Planet in Peril on massive paper foldouts in all newspapers.

One's intent and results, whereas the other is contradicting expectations.

[quote=Wikipedia]Types of irony

There are different kinds of irony. For example:

* Tragic (or dramatic) irony occurs when a character on stage or in a story is ignorant, but the audience watching knows his or her eventual fate, as in Shakespeare’s play Romeo and Juliet.
* Socratic irony takes place when someone (classically a teacher) pretends to be foolish or ignorant, to expose the ignorance of another (and the teaching-audience, but not the student-victim, realizes the teacher's plot).
* Cosmic irony is when a higher being or force interferes in a character's life, creating ironic settings.


Change the poll if you d[COLOR="black"]a[/COLOR]mned well please. I may not agree with what you say, but I'll defend to the death your right to say it.

That same page then goes on to list Fate/Cosmic separately from Situational.

It would be ironic if Judge was murdered by a little girl wearing a gas mask.




Posted by The Judge

No it wouldn't. It'd be coincidental.




Posted by Slade

Would it be ironic if you got kidnapped by a chick who was gonna pull out your teeth and sew your mouth shut?




Posted by Vampiro V. Empire

Now THAT'S irony!




Posted by The Judge

Yes, that'd be ironic.




Posted by BLUNTMASTER X

It would be ironic if a Judge ruled that the Judge was a pedophile.

RIGHT? That's irony, right?!




Posted by Vampiro V. Empire

Now THAT'S irony.

I like cosmic/fate irony best.

Is it bad that I pictured a Catholic getting impaled by a dildo?
:(
