Sarcasm v Irony

[jay santos]

So last night we had dinner with wife's side of the family. My sis in law has two kids. One is allergic to peanuts. The younger one is allergic to peanuts, soy, corn (including high fructose corn syrup-damn), garlic, and dairy. Wife and I and the kids were sitting around at home after coming home making fun of the poor kid, because that's what we do, make fun of other people to make us feel better about ourselves. Then I go to bed, and wife wakes me up in the middle of the night (more like 10:15 but seemed like middle of night). My kid's lip looks like this:
It's getting bigger and bigger and she takes him into the ER. Diagnosis is food allergy. Now we have to take him in to test what gave it to him.

The bolded cracks me up.

Now, I hope your boy is okay. He doesn't deserve it, but perhaps in some small way you and your wife do.

I thought this was ironic: AC/DC drummer Phil Rudd accused of trying to get a dirty deed done dirt cheap. Charges dropped though.

[TripletDaddy]

Members of AC/DC are probably the MOST likely to do dirty deeds (done dirt cheap).

[venkman]

fair point

[TripletDaddy]

fair point

They also have big balls

[Commando]

I can only picture that drummer speaking how the lead singer sings, trying to negotiate terms with the hitman. It makes no sense, yet perfect sense in my mind.

Apparently Phil didn't, since he had a lady that he wanted gone but he didn't have the guts.
