--Thrall and Hibbard, A Handbook to Literature, 3rd Ed.Irony: A broad term referring to the recognition of a reality different from the masking appearance. Verbal irony is a FIGURE OF SPEECH in which the actual intent is expressed in words which carry the opposite meaning. Irony is likely to be confused with SARCASM but it differs from SARCASM in that is it usually lighter, less harsh in its wording though in effect probably more cutting because of its indirectness.“There is a great deal of difference in believing something still, and believing it again.”
― W.H. Auden
"God made the angels to show His splendour - as He made animals for innocence and plants for their simplicity. But men and women He made to serve Him wittily, in the tangle of their minds."
-- Robert Bolt, A Man for All Seasons
"It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye."

The best part about satire is that if you do it well and are correct about the people you are aiming at there's a good chance they won't get it.Originally posted by jay santos View Post

Lisa Simpson: [Homer receives an award for using his fat body to block a toxic vent] I think it's ironic that Dad saved the day while a slimmer man would have fallen to his death.
Bart Simpson: Yeah, and I think it's ironic that for once, Dad's butt actually prevented the release of toxic gas...
Marge Simpson: Bart!Comment

I don't know, but be careful. Just yesterday I was reading in one of the forums about dissipating kids. I'd hate for you to go through all that trouble and then have your lunch dissipate right before your eyes!Originally posted by EuropeanFootballMale View PostComment
