"Define Irony..."
Steve Buschemi in Con Air was one of the best characters in a movie I think I've ever seen. Discuss.

1. isn't that more like sarcasm?
Irony is when you make a sign deriding the intelligence of other people and you mis-spell the word "moron".

3. I watch Con Air just so that I can see him say that quote
It's one of the best lines in any movie ever and only Steve Buscemi can deliver it so well!

6. No one but Steve could have played that part.
He's a really awesome guy too. He used to be a fireman in NYC. I guess when 9-11 happened he, very quietly, went and helped out. He did it anonymously and no one knew he did it until after the fact. I think he's a dem too, but I'm not sure.
