Define "Irony"

05/02/2018 3:48 PM

Yet another example of Irony:

Volta Oil tanker crashes into power pole - the sparks they are a flyin'!

Event was captured on Bourne (Massachusets, USA) police Dash-Cam.

Maybe they need to fit the tractors with BirdWires.

Ah, yes. Rte-28 between Bourne and Falmouth. Know the road well. I'll have to remember the bird-to-head excuse.

excuse indeed.. I didn't see a bird or a swerve.

It looked like napping at the wheel.. Lucky to be alive I'd say.

I think it is also ironic that clean electric cars and trucks can be powered by coal power plants.

Maybe I can cut out the middleman and build a coal powered car. Anyone know where I get some of that clean coal folks are talking about?

Irony is being stranded in the middle of the ocean, and dying of thirst.
