IRONIC
“
If every day you play the board game Risk
You've probably never taken a risk
In your life / And Monopoly has far
From a stranglehold on the board game market
A little kid died from suffocation
When he choked on a game piece from Operation
— Bo Burnham
What It Means
This is a placeholder explanation generated by the low-overhead model. It interprets "If every day you play the board game Risk
You've probably never taken a risk
In your life / And Monopoly has far
From a stranglehold on the board game market
A little kid died from suffocation
When he choked on a game piece from Operation" in the context of "IRONIC" to mean that wisdom is timeless.
