Prompt: SN100 challenge #178, Irony
Written: 16/02/2009

"It rained on my wedding day," Casey snipes, switching stations. "It was a pain in the ass. Or maybe an omen." He broods on this for some distance, then asks, "You think she knows she got it wrong ( Read more... )

Someone had to, and since I had no other ideas I thought I'd better get in first.

Poor Alanis. Not that I think she's overly worried.

Thank you!

I *totally* thought of the same thing, and wrote a drabble, without actually looking at which of my drabble-communities had actually posted the challenge. So now I have an Alanis-inspired supernatural drabble (sn100, spn100...it happens). Love that Casey wants the correct definition of "irony"!

There are still a few Supernatural comms around that call themselves 'SNsomethingorother', so it's a perfectly reasonable mistake to make.

Casey would. You just know it.

Thank you!

Hee! Alanis was the only thought I had too - I think her name now appears in the direction under Ironic, doesn't it?

So very good, Miss Phoebesmum. Thank you for a perfectly nice shot of SN. Now, may I have another?

I think Alanis may be responsible for the myth that Americans don't understand irony - which is doubly unfair (and possibly even ironic), since I'm pretty sure she's Canadian*. Poor Alanis. Although why 'poor' Alanis I don't know, she may have a shaky grasp on her definitions, but she has millions in the bank and, let's be honest, which would you prefer?!

Thank you very much! I shall try to write more, but it's a bit like pulling teeth at the moment, complete with (figurative) blood and screaming.

* Yes, she is - I had to check - and I find that also I can't spell 'Morissette'.

That song drives me crazy, and it would so bother Casey!

It's funny, as always, my first reaction is "Poor Danny."

Nice job!

Casey probably wrote some of those letters.

Danny seems to have ended up with Casey, so it all came okay for him in the end. Yay!

Also, thank you!

Love it!

Funny story - I'm teaching high school global warming classes at the moment, and a DVD we show them was narrated by Alanis and Keanu Reeves. LOL.

Thank you!

Heh. Alanis gets everywhere. Aside from all else she's been god, at least once.
