A Whole New Way Of Viewing Bumper Stickers

Sometimes you just have to look at someone else's work to justify your conclusions. Of course, this happened to me. You see, irony is a hugely important part of my life and I love how mocking people (whether it be their lifestyle, physical appearance etc.) has become part of our every-day life. As I read through Alejandra’s blog and skimmed through Mariana’s, I underwent anagnorisis. I had en epiphany.
We make fun of so many things, that in the end we take irony in all its magnificence for granted. It’s not even funny. Any type of drama/ soap-opera uses satire. As a matter of fact almost all hit TV shows display an amplification of a stereotype. (Again pointing us towards satire) And what is irony if not the essence of current comedy.
Maybe that’s why we are so hard to please. If we have an overly-exaggerated perception of how people act, in the actual circumstances we find it sort of bland.
While I narrate this in my head, I go con facebook to find a satirical bumpersticker hoping to find a really clever one. To tell you the truth, as soon as I opened the bumpersicker page, I let out a chuckle. I guess it wasn’t that hard.

See what I mean? Think about it: is what "laugh out loud" about still really that funny?
