pretty much any time that anyone says anything with ‘irony’ anywhere within 4mi of what they said, someone pops up with a definition.

you could be in a desert, or the arctic

a cattle skull or penguin would wander up with a fucking dictionary, and show you the definition of ‘irony’

and it still doesn’t make sense

and that’s why i don’t even use that word anymore
