ironywatch: “snakes on a plane” hype written by geoffrey on 05/15/08
i’m always on the look out for new things to appreciate ironically. this is ironywatch.
who could forget snakes on a plane? well, not the movie. people didn’t see the movie — but man, the media frenzy surrounding it was awesome.
“this is gonna be the movie the internet created!” clearly, by parodying and making fun of snakes on a plane endlessly, the internet audience was saying, “we’re legitimately interested in this movie,” and not “this movie looks fucking retarded!”
while watching or owning snakes on a plane the film isn’t ironic (who cares?), the following things are highly ironic activities:
- wearing a snakes on a plane shirt
- visiting snakes on a blog daily
- driving in your car and blasting the snakes on a plane soundtrack everywhere you go
- shouting “i have had it with these motherfucking snakes…” then waiting for other people to finish the sentence, but nobody does
- throwing a snakes on a plane party, which is in no way themed around snakes on a plane
oh, i’m ready for it. come on bring it! snakes on a plane hype, you’ve been ironywatched.

I actually have both a Snakes on a Plane shirt, and a Snakes on a Plane poster in my room. How Ironic.

if you were in your room, wearing the shirt, looking at the poster, and listening to the soundtrack — you’d explode.
