Atlanta Illustrated: Salami Tsunami with Dusty Scott

Comments:

I'm not a fan but I think it is ironic because there are not any actual examples of irony.

finally, someone else points out the lack of irony in that song. i thought it was just the subject of several late-night discussions between friends and myself.

man, i sure had to sign up for some useless crap to post that useless comment.

Dusty, how about Bok Choy, Arugula, and Rutabegas? Was the jar or pickled eggs next to the jar of pickled pigs feet? Seriously, how $%&#ed up do you have to be to eat pickled pigs feet?

Just for the record..."I would do anything for love, but I won't do that..." was written by Jim Steinman and performed by Meatloaf Aday (his full name).

it's funny you mention that "ironic" song! last night i was at a diner with the boy and that song was playing. i looked at him and said, "this song really should be changed from 'ironic' to 'unlucky'!" yes, alanis isn't one of canada's best exports (as a canadian, i apologize about her... most of us actually know what the word "ironic" means). and food that makes you laugh? i was at a dollar store not too long ago and they were selling cock flavoured ramen noodles made by a company named "smack". i laughed all the way home! got home and told the boy they sell smack at the dollar store! haha! it was great.

To the first poster-

Yes, that was ironic that no actual examples of irony were given. Very nice observation. I didn't think anyone would catch that, as irony is as misrepresented as the word "sarcasm" these days. Damn hippies.

I hope you continue to read in spite of your non-fan status.

I wasn't sure if he was saying he wasn't a fan of Alanis or Dusty. I vote Alanis.

Perhaps there was some irony there when Dusty assumed that the person was not a fan of his. Or maybe it was sarcasm mistaken for irony with a dash of empathetic brashness and blase fortitude.

Ironically, 2005 is the year of the cock.

Best of luck with the comic strip. I am positive that it will be fabulous. By the way, I liked "Dislodging Cupid's Arrow." Cute. Next time I have to listen to some guy go on and on about how great his buddy is, I'll understand why and praise him on his Wingman dedication.

First poster: I'm a Dusty fan, I'm not an alanis morissette fan.

You are so friggin' funny! Just when I think you couldn't possibly make me laugh as hard as you did the last time, I laugh even harder! (Isn't it ironic?!) hmmm.

A fly in your wine sucks. A fly in your post-drunk-fly-lecture tipple is coincidental, and it sucks. When you're toasting yourself for another fine lecture on the disinclination of flies to swim in chardonnay, having keenly noted their preference for red, and one of the pesky suckers dives in antennae first...irony...and of course it still sucks. Sucking often goes hand in hand with irony. The meatloaf thing was coincidence too. Irony is tricky business, but perhaps Alanis understands it perfectly...wouldn't that be ironic? Coincidentally, I live in her hometown.
