The Literal Definition of Irony
Main Entry: IRO·NY
Pronunciation: 'I-r&-nE also 'I(-&)r-nE
Function: noun
Inflected Form(s): plural -nies
Def: incongruity between the actual result of a sequence of events and the normal or expected result
Example: Let's say, hypothetically, you had an assistant. And you fired her. And then hired her back, like, three months later. But she was still a disgruntled employee who hated her job with a passion and was doing her damnedest to quit and go, well, almost anywhere else that paid greater than or equal to that which she currently makes. And then let's say there was a career fair which you needed someone to go to so as to represent the company. Out of any employee who would you pick? If your choice is the assistant, good job. That is the literal definition of irony.
So, clearly, if you need me tonight kids I'll be at a Cal career fair. Until 9:30pm. Which means I won't get home until around 11:00pm. Jesus. All I have to say is I'm showing up drunk and leaving early. And really, I couldn't give a fuck about recruiting for this company. For fuck's sake! - I'm trying to leave it anyway!
Of course, in other news, the office fag has decided he and I are friends. Wow - the men in my office are sorely, sorely misguided....

Enjoy . . .
I'm not misguided, am I?
Hey I have a question for you but I don't think I can ask it over this. Call me when you have a chance. This is like a real actual question with a possible outcome, not my usual pointless bullshit. Thanks! Oh, did I tell you about getting a phone disconnected? Do you know about this FCC ruling 3 months ago about GPS in cell phones? And did you know that I'm on bond? hmm. Just not sure what I may have forgotten to tell you.
YEAH!! I am so so so rooting for the Sox in this! They are such a great team with great spirit and it's awesome that they just won the first of the series!
