    Exactly.


    And it would be kinder to the people who died horrifically if the matter was not portrayed in the disrespectful fashion.

    I wonder would your last thought be of Ironic quips as your plane plunged to the ground and then was possibly burnt alive.

    Knowing looptheloop,
    Most probably , as it would be the plane burning alive, according to you.

    This topic should be relabeled "I don't know the difference between coincidence and irony, and neither do a lot of other boards users."

    That's not irony. Even Alanis had a better idea than you.

    Talk about irony.

    He dies in a building hit by a plane, and she dies in a plane hitting a building.


    Tell me about it OP.
    A bit like the canteen today- ten thousand spoons when all i needed was a knife.
    Unfcukingbelievable.

    Ironically, one of the few times Ed Byrne has ever been funny.
    Wait, did i use "ironically" correctly there.
    I could just as appropriately have used the term "uncharacteristically" couldn't i?

    But..but.. if this "uncharacteristic" performance from him can be deemed ironic, it would have been coincidentally ironic, given his subject matter.
    Wow, mind-blowing.

    sounds like tragic fate ... yet, in a way, it reminds me like something out of "Final Destination" :(
