Irony: something humorous based on contradiction. Most of us spent the first 18 years of our life wishing we were grown up and then the rest longing for the time when we weren’t!

true irony? it happens each and every time I have my car washed…. it will rain making the car wash a waste…. or someone comes by and splashes mud on it…. or my classic all time irony… seagulls drop presents on it….

A fetus that so many people wanted to save from abortion growing up to become a doctor who performs abortions.

I hate it when the water tastes “irony”. Maybe you have to live in good ole WV to get that one.

lol or Wyoming, I had the unfortunate time of 6 months or so living there. They have mines there too. Irony water… great! lol

Wyoming is big coal country as well. And they say mining doesn’t pollute the water. But we gotta have coal.

True. But in wyomings case, from my understanding, Wyoming has a bovine/human population of like 1,000 to 1. And the waste from said bovine is what is the biggest polluters. So much so that my former dad-in-law caught some disease (ghirardia?) and nearly died from the stuff. Yuck!

ghirardia is caused by bacteria – understandable with all the cow doody leaching into the soil. Although you can theoretically die from iron overdose it isn’t likely to be caused by drinking iron water. But ghirardia can kill – I believe severe diarrhea is one of the symptoms.

absolutely! It was a mess (pardon the pun) and scarey for a little while. Wyoming isn’t exactly known for medical advances either, so when you get sick, you literally are transported out of state to a medical facility capable of handling the situation, although admittedly this was in SW Wyoming. Maybe things were better in Eastern, but still.
February 26, 2013I understand you can get sick in other ways with an iron overdose… it can screw up your mind, make your organs freak out, on an organ level, and just really throw things crazy…. before it kills you. lol torture before death
