Dangerous Irony
September 9, 2008
Oh no! A new, dangerous drug with a dumb name! It made some kids throw up. That is not at all why I’m posting this, however. I want to draw attention to school official’s rigorous search for the truth behind Snurf:

He said “the Google”! What an old person!

Beware. One day, saying, “the Google”, along with “the rap music” etc, will shift from ironic hilarity to accepted usage.
