Just wanna say that my song for this round won the Songfight proper (my first ever win!)

Do I get extra points?

No extra points but a hearty slap on the back and a "well done, sir- what took you so long?" :)

Seriously, congrats. I haven't won a fight since 2005. You really think I would have taken the hint by now :)

Just in case anyone wants to hear my FABULOUS REMIX OF FRANK'S FABULOUS SONG.

If I had a dollar for every one of my songs j$ has called a 90s pastiche, I'd have $1 for every song I've written.

[ex-judge hat]Ummm ... one too many uses of the word "fabulous" in your previous statement? I'll let you figure out which one I would remove, but by way of a clue - I guess, as usual, I'm missing something but *That* took you nearly a year? :p [/ex judge hat]

Despite it being irony, which, yes, you missed - you wouldn't know a good song, anyway, as proven by your judging and discography.

A year, and the best musical response you could come up with was *that*?

Eight hours and the best 'pithy' response you could come up with was *that*?

'Ironic'? Now *that's* funny.

Do you remember when you were sharing stories about cheese consumption with your music "buddies"? Those were the days ...

Ha ha! I don't *have* any feelings! Apologise for hurting my ears with your remix, and your subsequent abuse of the word "irony", and we can talk :)

Hint: I knew you were using what you *thought* was irony again. I think what you're coming up with is closer to sarcasm, actually. Whether it's clod-hopping sarcasm or not is for discussion.

Sarcasm is a form of irony. I think you are confused by Alanis Morissette's song. Man, I thought you Brits were better at this stuff...

Oh dear. I'm afraid I don't subscribe to such reductive quasi-racism. "Sarcasm may employ ambivalence, although sarcasm is not necessarily ironic." - All I can say is, based on this particular conversation, I feel confident to state you, singular, definitely don't get it.

You looked up the wrong word. Gosh, no wonder you're so bad at quite literally everything.

Hmmmm, OK, you're not really making any sense to me now. I think therefore I'll have to bow out, admitting I got nothing when faced with the undeniable "everything you do is shit" angle.

Hint ...

Thank you. I know it was hard for you to open Google and learn to read, and even harder to admit that you were wrong.

This is like watching one of those crapy RomComs. Any minute now they are going to start shagging on the pool table

And finally, my song reaches its only logical conclusion: a cat-fight between j$ and MG. Meow!
