This is typical of his act, Although he was much better on Full House than he was on Americas funiest Videos, he always be will be a total dork.

And he should be shot for fucking Alanis Morissette when she was underage and he was 30something.

Irony at its finest (7 seconds)

zombieater says...

I believe that some of the situations stated in the Alanis Morisette song may be ironic with just a little bit of a deeper understanding of them. For example "it's like rain on your wedding day" is not necessarily ironic unless one knows the average annual precipitation in the area and at that day of the year. Consider, "it's like rain on your wedding day in the Sahara desert". With a bit of clarity this becomes "more" ironic.

On that note, perhaps this argument alludes to the fact that irony is not a black or white term, but a gradient that may be applied to a myriad of situations, considering the fullness to which they are presented. As ReverendTed suggested, having more information about the situation may move the event higher on the "irony gradient", to a more "pure form" of irony, as shuac so strongly advocates. Either way, I believe it's ironic.
