    i think there is an episode when a side character asks columbo to help him find/investigate something and columbo agrees and says that three eyes are better than two

    I sort of agree that Columbo is the greatest ever show.
    Because thinking of the times we living and speaking of current.. No wait: it's just really timeless.

    It's like rain on your wedding day. A free ride when you've already paid.

      It's not even coincidence. It's just misfortune.

      the irony of that song is that she doesn't use anything that could be considered ironic, Alannis is way smarter then you may think

    I wouldn't say that last example was ironic.
    I would say it was more steely.

    Conversely, "rain on your wedding day" isn't ironic! Unless Alanis Morissette was getting married to Ra the Sun God, anyway.

      But "rain on your wedding day" not being ironic is ironic.

    Sean so despises Skinner.
