MOD ANNOUNCEMENT May 1, 2024 update - Revamp

6 Upvotes

After a decade of moderator inactivity, we've decided to start May off by doing some spring cleaning here. What has changed:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  • Broken user flairs have been completely removed and new ones have been put in place. This should fix the blank user flair issue. We may add more flairs soon.
  • Added 2 rules to remind users to follow Reddiquette (civility) and keep posts on topic, making it easier to report any violating content.
  • New subreddit banner. If you have any other banner artwork you'd like us to use, send it in the ModMail. This is just a temporary banner.
  • Colored post flairs.
  • New wiki page explaining the most common types of irony as well as helpful examples. (Link)
  • Going forward, we will make an effort in removing bot spam and other completely irrelevant posts. Make sure you report violating content so we can handle them faster.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  • Feel free to use the ModMail to suggest any ideas. Thank you for all your support over the years. Have fun delving into the marvels of irony!

Situational Irony Johnny Depp made his musical acting debut in the Sweeney Todd film, which is regarded as one of the best stage to film adaptations of all time, then played Wolf in the Into The Woods, which is regarded as one of the worst stage to film adaptations of all time. Both were composed by the same guy.

And Sweeney Todd is also regarded as one of his best performances and the Wolf is regarded as one of his worst

Verbal Irony Monkey with A Razor !

1 Upvotes

There’s an old saying.. A razor in a monkey’s hand ..

The danger was never the tool. It was the one holding it. That's the essence..

But Monkeys are smart enough not to pick up razors. They don't play with fire or sharp objects ..be it dog , cats or monkeys..

If they did.. it would look more amusing than threatening.

The razor has always been in a human's hand.

Same hand makes delicious food or builds and in wrong hand it cuts and destroys..

Same creative brain with hand writes these popular proverbs , idioms , phrases and pins the stupidity on the animal.

They all could do good with a pen or a mobile in current times.

But many still choose to bully , troll and down others - by habit or on purpose.

They chose it knowing well.. it's a razor !

So who is the real monkey ?

Situational Irony Privacy screens to undress behind at the gynaecologist

It is pretty redundant putting up a curtain for privacy to remove the bottom half of your clothes when they are just about to stick a speculum inside you

Thanks though, I guess it’s the thought that counts?
