i cant think of a more accurate depiction of war than crazy over-the-top violence.

If they weren't playing CoD they'd just be playing some other game, I don't see the big deal, it's not like veterans expect much from todays youth.

Veteran's Day is also not about "the world war"

please read up on some history,

Remembrance Day is observed on 11 November to recall the official end of World War I on that date in 1918, as the major hostilities of World War I were formally ended "at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month" of 1918 with the German signing of the Armistice

Veteran's Day isn't about the world wars. It's about anyone who has ever served in the military forces.

Remembrance/Veteran's Day is to commemorate those who died in both World Wars, the Korean War and any other armed conflicts, as well as pay respect to those who fought and still serve in the military now... Not just World War I :(

You stated the reason that is on the day that it is.

The sole reason it started with commemorating WWI only was because WWII didn't happen back then.

I suppose you must not be from the U.S.A. Veterans day, as it is commonly referred to in America, is a day to recognize and honor all veterans, not just World War I veterans.

There aren't exactly a helluva lot of WWI vets left alive. That was kind of a long-ass time ago.

As to the question posed by the OP, I don't think it's ironic. I don't think that's what the word "ironic" means. It's like rain on your wedding day. That's not ironic either.
