It is too sad to laugh

[elfs]

This morning, for no reason I can recall precisely, I ended up on a "conservative T-shirt website," and as I was rolling through the inane collection of shallow "Great Nation" slogans and stupidies, I spotted this as the ultimate juxtaposition: On the left, images of their t-shirts; on the right, an ad column followed by one piece of site administrivia.

Dammit, why isn't this kind of cognitive dissonance painful?

I'd just call it irony.

Because it isn't cognitive dissonance. It just SHOULD be. That's what sucks.
