IRONY

Post by Neville Briggs » Thu Mar 20, 2014 1:46 pm

I was being served at the supermarket today by a " youngish "checkout chick who kept calling me, " young man ".
I said " Referring to me as young man, I think has a touch of irony." She looked puzzled and said " I don't understand, irony ? " :roll: :) But she then referred to me as " darlin' " ......now that is even more ironic. :lol:

I fear not Heather. The dictionary tells me that irony is use of words to mean the opposite of what is said. :lol:

:lol: Onya Dave

On that topic, I had a friend whose star sign was cancer and I thought it was ironic how she died . .


That's right, she was attacked by a giant crab.
