This is ironic (1 Viewer)

The other day, I was eating steak and wanted to cut it, like, with a knife or something, and all I could find was 10000 spoons.

 
Guy I work with did a no call/no show today. He is getting a raise and a promotion.

ETA: Many people confuse irony and tire irony.

ah, now I do. I'm going to go ahead and say that was the funniest thing he has ever posted. By far.
I've actually lol'd at several of his posts recently...as long as he's not in a political thread, there's an opportunity for him to be a normal human being.
 
"Irony deals with opposites; it has nothing to do with coincidence. . . . If a diabetic, on his way to buy insulin, is killed by a runaway truck, he is the victim of an accident. If the truck was delivering sugar, he is the victim of an oddly poetic coincidence. But if the truck was delivering insulin, ah! There he is the victim of irony." George Carlin, Brain Droppings 115-16 (1997).

Hitler, of course, thought he was irenic. "A little slice of Turkey, a little spot of Greece". Ironic.
