The problem with knowledge it enlarges what you know and also what you don’t know but now have an inkling of.

On Twitter… Tony seems a bit mixed up.
He has posted repeats of several recent strips, with mixed up questions.
Including yesterday’s…. with its proper question…..
which was “Ever have one of those days?”
And today’s question…. big surprise….
is yesterday’s “What is irony?”

I’m not really sure that IS the right question for yesterday’s strip about Elliot’s idea for the toaster…
But today’s does make more sense for today.
There were a lot of good answers posted for it….
I just want to add that “irony” is also a descriptive word….
as in…. I don’t own fussy clothes like ruffled silk blouses that are all… you know…. like, iron-y and stuff.

Definitely nothing in the Alanis Morrisette song. Coincidental, yes. Ironic, no.

Tony. The IOC would like you step into the booth and give them a sample.

I stick to “Ever have one of those days?” – and where Elliot got the gun powder from in the first place.

It certainly took long enough to come to that realization.
