Here's a bit of real life of British irony.

On the 16th of April this year the government put into place a waterhose ban because there was a drought in certain parts of the UK. (One of the wettest countries by size in the world btw!)

The "authorities reckoned it would take three months of continuous rain to fill the reservoirs!

Anyhoo on April 17th it started the torrential and continuous rain that consisted of Noah's flood and any other great mythological flood you can think of! After one month our reservoirs were full!

Our hosepipe ban was still enforced!

Another month of pretty much the same.....and our tiny little homes were flooding and we'd stopped eating cos we were all drinking our own body weight in rain to try and contain the downpour!

Three months in....the damns and reservoirs were overfuckingflowing so the bright sparks at the ministry for common sense and inappropriate weather lifted the ban!

Next day! The rain stopped. I kid you not!!!

During all this time every single one of us had to pay our water rates!

British irony in action....even our weather has a sense of humour!

Peace.

I get the irony there, but there's another more subtle one: if it's pissing rain, why is there a desire to water one's lawn anyways?

Back to the Greeks... one of my favorite of the philosophers was Marijuanades.
