Erin McLauchlan’s Reviews > Planet Funny: How Comedy Took Over Our Culture > Status Update

This discussion of irony makes me think of Ethel Cain's tumblr rant. I want to be able to take serious things seriously, although the internet seems an especially futile place to have this happen. Also makes me reconsider my ironic usage of "god bless" as a former Catholic now agnostic (?). It started out clearly ironic, but now I fear people may actually take it as sincere. Sometimes I'm not even sure.
