I think of irony as someone with half a smirk on their face: funny and witty, but not quite laughable. <br />Anyway, I wanted to let you know that I nominated you for the Blogger Recognition Award at http://violetcottage.blogspot.com/2016/10/blogger-recognition-award.htmlAbbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01815787419344153905noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5837860452830746732.post-5650298628378610712016-09-27T09:35:40.232-07:002016-09-27T09:35:40.232-07:00You are NOT the only one who struggles with irony....You are NOT the only one who struggles with irony.

Because it took me forever before it finally "clicked" and I was like, "oh. So THAT'S irony."

It used (and sometimes still is) one of those concepts I can't wrap my head around or explain. Most of the time, I can tell when something is ironic, but I can't tell you WHY it's ironic.<br />Unfortunately, this doesn't go over well in college. :PNoodlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12118354450041632925noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5837860452830746732.post-76746849859288309032016-09-27T06:06:52.341-07:002016-09-27T06:06:52.341-07:00This is actually extremely interesting.

Along with a lot of other words. <br />I find this post very helpful, though. I mean, I know what irony is by now, but still, great choice of words and examples. Examples are things I don't do very well. *rolls eyes* <br />So thanks. :)<br />-DianaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5837860452830746732.post-21332479701833470432016-09-26T22:05:52.949-07:002016-09-26T22:05:52.949-07:00I LOVE Irony... and I use it a lot in my writing. ...I LOVE Irony... and I use it a lot in my writing. :-P This was a lovely post!Naomi Pittshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13932777444665441104noreply@blogger.com
