Cepeda works for the Giants as a community liaison and speaks to at-risk children about the dangers of drugs and alcohol.

 

I'm thinking of an Alanis Morissette song.

 

Which one? Her current cover of The Black Eyed Peas "My Humps"? (Go to youtube and search on that: the video is a riot.)

The thing is, none (or, at least, most) of the things in that song were actually ironies.

 

Rain on your wedding day could be ironic. If it was destined to be a bad marriage for example.

still, most of those things were just unfortunate, not ironic

is it ironic when someone sings a song about irony, and almost none of the things are ironic?

 

Yes.

 

3 a (1) : incongruity between the actual result of a sequence of events and the normal or expected result.

no kidding. i don't know what's worse now. the fact that the song isn't really based around irony or the fact that anytime anyone mentions alanis' name they quick-trigger right to the "unfortunate" crap. what's unfortunate about being rich and selling the most records ever by a freshman release? nazis!

 

you guys are irony nazis

Some dude named Glen Ballard wrote the songs, not Alanis.

i worked with "some dude" for 3 years in the capitol rec building. he co-wrote those songs with her and produced the album. he had 3 points on the record. he made a ton of cash, too.

 

working with her on two occasions, she never came across as unintelligent. she was never whiney, full of ego or any of the things i often run into in the business. it's the nature of people to hate on successful things or people.

 

it's understandable. well, no, it's just unfortunate.

I'm not hating, I'm just saying. I got nothing against Alanis Morissette as a person. Chill 'dude who's connected to the music industry'.
