for example, the alanis morrisette song is the worst offender, and a line like "it's like rain on your wedding day" has no inherent irony, as being a wedding day does not disqualify a day from raining, it's just coincidental that it chose your wedding day as a day to rain | ||

In the example you gave, a wedding day without rain would not really be your expectation, it would be more of your wish or hope. An expectation must be based on a reason, and as you pointed out, there is nor reason to expect a dry wedding day. Unless you are a witchdoctor who has convinced everyone of your power to control the weather. | ||

I have it with Ritz sometimes, but that stuff is almost purely processed crap. If you can't think of any better sources of protein, try peanut butter. Remember that saturated fat is good for Testosterone levels. I just have a spoon of this while drinking milk. Yum. | ||
