The Stranger

dude, i have that spy vs spy book!

Ha ha. I'm feeling smart cuz I got the London joke.

The Stranger just wasted 100 seconds of my time reading this. I wonder of it took a 100 minutes to write?

I regret not getting the regrets issue in print.

Ah, the regret pull-out.

Movie surprised me so much better then expected...

Extremely good what.

Irony is "a state of affairs that is the reverse of what was to be expected; a result opposite to and in mockery of the appropriate result." - George Carlin
So, if they had posted "Last!" or something completely unexpected and in the reverse of a "First" post it could be considered "ironic"... but commenting "First" to something you actually posted... See More is annoyingly common on the web, and far from ironic... just silly and possibly laugh inducing, but not ironic.
You, complaining of being maligned for your appreciation of the humor in irony, while misusing the word in a way that would have annoyed the late, great George Carlin... THAT's ironic.

Precisely, 'the reverse of what is expected, in mockery of the appropriate result.' How is the poster posting 'first' not ironic? " but commenting "First" to something you actually posted... is annoyingly common on the web"... No, I believe the practice is to put 'First' on any other random post besides yours, therefore concreting your douchebag ... See Morestatus for the whole world to see. Your 'opposite' goal is achieved by The Stranger doing the same on their own post, therefore beating said douchebags to the punchline, and achieving an ironic state. I haven't seen anyone put 'First' after something they themselves posted, but of course I am also not a forum/comment troll, or a English major.

In other news, Happy Freaking New Years!

Agree.. The Sister in Law.. is a Gem.. Every Family should have one!

I would vote, if all the choices actually went to the story, instead of just the kneecap dislocation

Really enjoyed the mad diary on Slog!
