Honestly most cat-lovers would just agree with the cat

The real difference is dogs were domesticated on purpose
Cats just showed up one day and started eating rats out of our food storage
No one ever trained a cat to think its not a lion
The way we trained a dog to think it wasn't a wolf

If I'm up at infomercial o'clock I'm working
Also cable costs money
And this way I'm never tempted to watch the History Channel and destroy my TV

Okay all the works of fiction about drummers or retail backend I can think of are actually funny
But its like the same reason computer scientists hate crime shows where computers solve everything and are presented as being magic
Its bullshit they know its bullshit they know exactly why its bullshit but everyone thinks the show is making a good point about how things work
That's how historians and archaeologists feel about Ancient Aliens

Enjoying something ironically is if I expected to hate it but enjoyed it instead
Or if I claimed to enjoy it but actually didn't
Or if some hypothetical audience knew I should hate something I actually enjoyed at the time because of information they have and I don't
I mean I guess I could do the middle one but why

Dramatic irony.
Doesn't actually apply in real life.
But it's like Oedipus spending the whole play looking for the guy who killed his father, the previous king.
But the audience knows it was him all along.
Because Greeks didn't give a damn about spoilers.

Only the second time you watch it.
The first time it's just a tweest.

Anyway the point is if I was dead and spending my afterlife arguing about the definition of irony on a weird social media app
And someone knew about that but couldn't tell me
That would be ironic
