Don't you think?
In KL, my walk from the hotel to the train station took me right past the apparently infamous Putu jail. While the jail isn't used anymore, they've left it pretty much as it was when it was being used. One of the more charming features was a big-arse sign on one of the walls: "DEATH!! That's the mandatory sentence for drug trafficking in Malaysia." Fair enough. There are quite a few signs like that through Malaysia, even if they weren't quite so dramatic. But the beauty about this one is that there was a rave held at the jail just a few weeks before hand. Now, for the sake of argument, let's assume that some of the westerners at the rave popped some E. Would that be ironic? Popping pills in a jail with a big drug warning out the front?
Using the definition of irony to your right, examine this proposition in one hundred words or less. Extra marks for incorporating Alannis lyrics.
