People say they're sick of irony, but then they turn around and watch shows like Pop Team Epic that are absolutely packed with it, so what gives?

Pop Team Epic is packed with parody and camp, both of which are inherently ironic.

A lot of people think that 'irony' means 'ironic detachment', but that isn't necessarily true. It can can actually be really playful and fun; early [s4s] had a lot of that.

Parody and camp are not ironic.

Irony is saying one thing but meaning the opposite.

Is that really irony? It seems so random to me, that I have trouble calling it a type of humor other than absurdist

 No.2335

>>2333
No, that's sarcasm or facetiousness. Irony is when a situation runs counter to what one would expect. A fire station burning down is ironic. A Sith Lord having the power to save other people's lives but not his own is ironic. A serious adult male who likes 2deep4you art films being a fan of My Little Pony is ironic. The last one is where the modern internet slang version of the word arises from; people intentionally doing something that doesn't fit their reputation in order to evoke surprise in others, to stand-out. It sort of gained the implication that the person doesn't REALLY like the thing and are just doing it for the attention, but whether the person is genuine or not doesn't really make it any more or less ironic.

Still, you're right that parody and camp are not inherently ironic, though parody does often make use of some level of irony in the dissonance between style and subject. PTE is mostly just lolsorandumb and overt pop culture references.

Have you seen any cool wild animals lately? (if you're in a city, maybe there's a cool pigeon or rat or something?)

I saw five, yes FIVE of these guys flying around last week but forgot to make a thread about it. I can hear one of them outside right now and it's pretty nice. They're not as big as a hawk, but there's still a noticeable size difference between them and most birds. I once saw one catch a cicada in the air and land to eat it. Pretty cool.

I don't have a yard or any land. A neighbor right nearby has these 3 or 4 mourning doves on his lawn any time I walk by. I like to watch them walk around and giggle at the way their heads bob; they're very skittish so when I walk by I try to do it as unobtrusively as possible.

I want a yard someday so I can enjoy and encourage these guys to come visit.

Just saw the top half of a cicada on the back porch with a bunch of ants doing their thing, but it makes me wonder where the lower half went since it seemed like a pretty clear cut. But, then I remembered that I've seen the bird in OP snatch one mid-air so I wonder if it was one of them. Personally I'm not a huge fan of cicadas outside my room making extremely loud repetitive sounds all day, so it's a reminder that birds truly are important

I loved nfs underground I and II. Although the first was better, because the second forced the players to make their cars ugly.

I think realism in games is a good thing. Not that unrealistic games cannot be good as well, it depends on the kind of game.

I played NFS when I was a kid and it's okay but I liked Forza more, but then racing games are not very interesting for me and I don't play them now, I think they are simple and Forza can't really change much since the one I played on Xbox 360. Driving is still just driving. In this case you might need to add unrealistic elements to a game to change it form what is actually something very simple.

Ah it's going to be a total overhaul of the difficulty, cops, events and retooling all vehicles so they feel less samey. It has been smooth sailing but changing the vehicle handling is quite hard because I don't want to go full sim like other mods.

Changing heat values has been really something... before I toned down from my first test build it took me around 1hr 48mins to lose the cops on the third highest difficulty. I think that might be overkill.
