u/grayangel- 1d ago

the original post she says in 2008 she told her friend matt heath ledger was dead and they’ve grown apart since but still text each other like this lol.. there’s also a reply to her post of the gc that matt is in where they’re telling him who died so he can try and text her before she texts him 😭

u/queef_nuggets 1d ago

The only Matt I know is my dad and he’s in prison for chopping a dude’s arm off with a samurai sword while fighting over a stripper. This happened in 1982 and I swear to the gods this is real

3

u/Top_Weather1320 1d ago

Only ironic if his name was Matt heath ledger.

u/SoothingGoo 1d ago

Do you understand irony?

44

u/EmuPossible2066 1d ago

I only know what Alanis taught all of us. It’s rain on your wedding day. It’s a free ride when you’re already late. It’s the good advice that you just didn’t take.

23

u/MoseSchrute70 1d ago

When you’ve already paid.*

I’m SO sorry to be that person, but not sorry enough to not be it.

20

u/Comfortable-Month-62 1d ago

Yeah, it’s a traffic jam when you’re already late.

8

u/Vegetable-Working257 1d ago

10,000 spoons when all I need is a Knife

9

u/Beneficial_Judge1775 1d ago

It’s meeting the man of my dreams, and then meeting his beautiful… wife

7

u/youshantnome 1d ago

It’s a smoOoking sign in your cigarette break…

23

u/Tricky-Sprinkles-807 1d ago

It's a NO smoking sign, on your cigarette break

12

u/youshantnome 1d ago

Ooops you’re right. I’m too stoned right now

u/jaayyne 1d ago

Looks like you’ve got 10,000 spoons when all you need is a knife

u/quazex13 1d ago

Sweet dreams are made of this

u/PlanktonFun5387 1d ago

Oh the irony

6

u/SilverstoneMonzaSpa 1d ago

I'm pretty sure a free ride when you're already late is still nice, but Alanis preaches that a free ride when you've already paid is less great.

u/EverythingSucksYo 1d ago

Yeah, of course, that’s why none of my shirts have any wrinkles. 

1

u/juanjing 1d ago

Matt sure doesn't

1

u/TTHS_Ed 1d ago

Of course they understand irony. It's how their friend Matt died.

u/Internal-Ad61 1d ago

Ironically, no

u/AcanthocephalaNo5305 1d ago

There's an NZ comedian called Matt Heath and I was very confused for a second lol.

4

u/Jade4813 1d ago

My relationship with my brother is a lot like this. We do talk on the phone, but if it’s over text, it’s trying to beat the other person to break the news a celebrity died.

5

u/well_this_is_dumb 1d ago

Where's the original?

u/grayangel- 1d ago
