Graham Paddons Beard 2,886 Posted January 31, 2020 It’s “ironic”that two people are being treated for Coronavirus in Newcastle? Is this because we play Newcastle tomorrow? I’m firmly in the “I don’t get it” Club. (which in itself might be ironic) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think it was more due to the the supermarkets changing to the out of town superstores where the same drinks were available but were cheaper. We never had a Soda Stream, tried it at a friends house and thought it tasted like cr@p. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We never had a Soda Stream, tried it at a friends house and thought it tasted like cr@p. That does seem the logical explanation. A slow but steady change in our shopping habits. Soda Stream was ok. Certain flavours like lemonade were good, whereas their own cola was pretty ropey. I had the "bright" idea of trying to make carbonated milk. Nicely explosive.😵 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
keelansgrandad 6,680 Posted January 31, 2020 Is one of them Alanis Morrisette? Then it could be ironic. She might have to swallow a Jagged Little Pill. You oughta know Paul. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr Angry 2,094 Posted January 31, 2020 I looked up Corona drinks when the virus was first mentioned. When I read that the advert with the slogan "Every bubble's passed its fizzical" was used in the 1970s, I felt very, very old indeed. And "Get busy with a fizzy SodaStream". My wife mentioned the other day that she would quite like to get a SodaStream. Still no explanation from Paul Moy as to why this is ironic, rather than unlucky or annoying. Unless he was being ironic by saying that it is ironic when it isn't? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You oughta know Paul. And just like in Alanis Morrisette's song "Ironic", nothing about Paul Moy's statement is really that ironic. Just a sequence of unfortunate circumstances.
