Which part isn’t true?

  The fact that my comment is ironic...

    Then you don't understand irony. Which is itself ironic. I was using the word in this sense: "Irony: a literary technique, originally used in Greek tragedy, by which the full significance of a character's words or actions are clear to the audience or reader although unknown to the character."

      This isn't a story, and I am not a character. If that's what you were using it like, you are wrong. It'd make at least some sense if you incorrectly meant "irony" in the sense that fucking with the FAA, which I said was bad, is how the MAX was made so poorly. Your fake choice of definition is even worse than what you actually meant.

        Wow. Not only do you not understand irony, you apparently don't understand literature either. All the world’s indeed a stage And we are merely players Performers and portrayers Each another’s audience Outside the gilded cage

          Sounds like I do understand irony, and you don't like being called out for not understanding it yourself.

        It is possible to see irony in real world statements, actions and situations; "irony" is not strictly the name of several literary or dramatic devices.

          Of course it's possible, it's just not present here. I never said irony was exclusive to narratives, I said the irony he's failing to accurately point out is.
