Is trying to have a conversation with Drip smarter, dumber, or equally as dumb to running headfirst into a brick wall? (cue MC with a Gus Frerotte picture)

Is that what you believe?MisterCreosote said:Drip said:It was an awards show. I don't have a problem with her thanking people who she felt have helped her along the way to success but her declaration changed the dynamics of the show in my opinion.
People can thank whoever they want as long as all of the thankees are heterosexual.
Small Town Guy said:Drip being upset about Foster revealing all to the world is ironic (or not, someone tell me what that means again), because on my ride to work today, my co-worker was annoyed that Foster wasn't more vocal about the fact she's gay. She thought she had a responsibility to be more open about it and was slightly disappointed by the speech because of that.

Son, we appreciate you coming to us for council. Ruffians such as habitual offender Boom_70 could learn something from this. It's not ironic because the two occurrences are unrelated. Speaking generally, irony is when one thing leads to something exactly counter to what would be expected. Drip saying something dumb is not ironic.

It's too bad we don't have any Sarcasm Police here.

So would Drip saying something intelligent be ironic?
There's not a damn thing wrong with not agreeing with the gay lifestyle or her coming out at an awards show. You're pissed because I don't embrace that lifestyle? Tough. I respect her right to live life the way that she wants to but that doesn't mean that I have to go along with it or the way that she came out at the show.Irony Police said:Small Town Guy said:Drip being upset about Foster revealing all to the world is ironic (or not, someone tell me what that means again), because on my ride to work today, my co-worker was annoyed that Foster wasn't more vocal about the fact she's gay.
