Author	Topic: Isn't it ironic...
EngrBohn Highlie Posts: 773 From: United States Registered: Jul 2000	posted April 22, 2002 07:44 I don't spend much time reading the Love-related threads, but there are a couple that I follow. I'm seeing comments like "I say that you should go for it and tell him how you feel." (macman) "I say ask her." (EngrBohn) "Quit playing Hamlet and just ask her out." (Rednivek) Yet, in another forum, in reference to this JoT, we have "'He should dump her.' ... And to judge their relationship upon an online poll." (Burnum) ------------------ cb Oooh! What does this button do!? IP: Logged

That my due in part to the fact that i have no idea who Alanis Morisette is or have ever really heard her music.

Yes, it is a stupid song - mainly as most of the events she cites are not ironic, just unfortunate. ------------------ "What she asked of me at the end of the day - Caligula would have blushed." - The Smiths IP: Logged
EngrBohn Highlie Posts: 773 From: United States Registered: Jul 2000	posted April 23, 2002 05:15 Huh. I do know who she is, but I don't pay attention to her or her music. So I din't know about that song. This subject was intended to be a play on "Isn't it Romantic" ------------------ cb Oooh! What does this button do!? IP: Logged

snupy Super Geek Posts: 225 From: Chicago Registered: Mar 2002	posted April 23, 2002 18:30 Actually, "You Oughta Know" by Alanis was an awesome song. Anyone who's ever been cheated on can relate to the raw anger in it. IP: Logged

TheAnnoyedCockroach Assimilated Posts: 446 From: Denial Registered: Feb 2002	posted April 23, 2002 18:53 Maybe we all just seriously dislike the woman and enjoy nitpicking. Or maybe we just like diverting a topic totally from it's original intent. Only time will tell! ------------------ What? You want I should take my pants off? IP: Logged
spungo Assimilated Posts: 386 From: Hell's toilet Registered: Jan 2002	posted April 24, 2002 02:41 Don't get me wrong - I'm a big Alanis fan - she's good in Dogma as well (not that it was a hard part). I just object to the abuse of English in that one song - being the pedant I am. (Question: is it pedantry or pedantism? ) ------------------ "What she asked of me at the end of the day - Caligula would have blushed." - The Smiths IP: Logged
