Could be a lot of truth to that but it’s at least about more than one person.

It’s like 10,000 comments on a post when all you need is a wiki link.

Nothing in that song is ironic.

A little too ironic… and yeah, I really do think.

You went to the wrong elementary school. It would be hilarious if it ironically had no irony. Except…it has a clear case of cosmic irony.

We have like what, six types of irony you could argue for one or two more.

It's not meant to be.

A little bit ironic, dontcha think?
