[quote]I think whining about sexual assault is worse than sexual assault. [spoiler]Thats how stupid you sound[/spoiler][/quote] The irony in calling someone stupid, while paralleling virtual crouching down and up a few times in a video game to sexual assault, is palpable.

  • no, because calling something stupid and likening it to sexual assault, which you ascertain is stupid isn't irony. It's the same. They aren't opposite. It's not irony.

It's not irony.[/quote] It is stupid, that much is for sure. The irony(or "opposite") lies in him making allegations of stupidity, while making an incredibly stupid statement himself therein making himself appear stupid instead of whom he was addressing.

  • Is teabagging not a form of sexual assault albeit very very minor and insignificant? Represents a sexual act last i checked.

  • Quite, if it was forced upon you. But then you'd have to be on your back staring up at a naked dude squatting over you. You haven't run away so it's not assault. You wanted to feel those pods on your eyelids.

  • [quote]Is teabagging not a form of sexual assault albeit very very minor and insignificant? Represents a sexual act last i checked.[/quote] If you're going to employ that rationality, than you must also submit that killing a player of a different ethnicity would be a hate crime. Represents a violent act against a minority, last time I checked. [Spoiler]See how ridiculous that sounds[/spoiler]

  • Just like if you're going to employ irony in an argument, then you must also submit that one must first learn its definition.

  • ^^^^^This! The amount of times I see people use irony incorrectly is astounding. Here for those that don't know is irony. Man1: I am working all weekend Man2: ah that's nice. The second man is being ironic by saying one thing but meaning another.
