What is it called when one deliberately states the opposite of what they mean to drive home a point ? I thought the preceding 'interesting take' was a dead give away.

I think we might have a double whif here of missed *or miss-used* humour.

The humour was not aimed at you. *s*

Of course a highly reflective surface 'reflecting' light from another source, can itself be considered a source of light, can be legitimately called 'a light'.

After all, who actually built that there lighthouse up on yonder hill ?

We must repent, brother, from the errors of our weighs.

MonkeyTrots > A reflecting surface is not a light.


Very true, Professor.
But, in Biblical times what they 'knew' was that it got dark. The Moon rose and "Hey, I can see." And so the Moon MUST be a light.

Did you put that up there? Did you put that up there? No? Well I guess God MUST have put it there so's we'd have some light at night.

And you are supposed to laugh as this is meant as a joke.

Zim.
