And the winner is... Eugenie!  Moi, j’ai très honte  but then again they never appointed me the Editor-in-Chief of the Oxford English Dictionary, much as I tried...  Apart from this so very embarrassing fact of my biography, what has the meaning of the words to do with the fact that you do not practise as you preach?  Drama? What drama?  PS I did my homework as requested ma’am: Definition: irony: 1. Witty language used to convey insults or scorn; 2.A sort of humor, ridicule, or light sarcasm; Synonyms (sorted by strength): sarcasm, satire, ridicule, banter, humor, raillery. Consider also: derision, mockery, quiz, gibe, innuendo, persiflage, trope, wittiness, cynicism, witticism, absurdity, badinage, incongruity, inconsistency, ingenuity, razz, sneer, wryness, caprice, chaff, temper, insult. But for that you should blame the guy called http://www.websters-onlin...q=irony&sa=Search#922...for I’m only a highly educated philologist with a good (not perfect!) knowledge of several languages…  Good day everyone!  Happy 500 tulips

Ahahaha. Catfight! I love it. Hey, do you think it is witty meddling in if two guys have a problem? And to ridicule one of them? It's like kindergarden, but I enjoyed to read it nevertheless. Ya must know, some of my secret hobbies is that I like reading the guys on youtube fighting about all kind of probs and topics before I go to sleep. With chips or popcorn.  Don't know who you are, but you seem to have quite a few 'interesting' secret hobbies and the coolest avatar at RD.  So welcome and happy dishing!!!!!!!

I apologize for my long-winded airy post (please find definition here http://www.synonyms.net/synonym/airy if interested) though at least one poster thinks it’s an “Award-winning material” (thanks Eugenie! I’m flattered I’m sure!) Mars? Mars who?  Friend? What friend? Out with it! Miss W, Herzlichen Dank! Your kindness is amazing! ZittoAnna, it was nice of you to express some neutral politeness, thanks a lot! Odette, ma chère amie, let me tell you that you and your family have been in our prayers all this time… My boys (hubby included) send you their best wishes! (I hope you excuse me being stupid at making public this private matter  ) As to ‘annoying me’ /quote/... hmmm… I just was wondering why the Admins do tolerate Tulip of NONSENSE?  Perhaps they don’t mind having certain diversity on the board? Within reasons of course…  (I swear they definitely aren’t friends of mine!  ) But maybe they’re planning already to ban me altogether,  so I’d better not push my luck…  Thanks for reading everyone,  Tulip of Annoyance
