Talk about failure to grasp the correct meaning of a word. MS Word right-click thesauraus treating you well is it? Haha, I'm just mucking around.
In relation to the topic at hand, I believe asking a student to write a creative piece is a bit silly. How do you mark or judge creativeness? Does creativeness = control of language?

No more than memorising an essay does

lol. You could relate well to 'Ironic' by Alanis Morrisette. It's full of non-ironic 'ironies'.

Pretty Ugly is an oxymoron. As is Military Intelligence. :D
