Anything really ironic that you notice more than most people?

George Carlin used to ask why people drive on the parkway, but park on the driveway.

I used to wonder why the only member of ZZ Top who didn't have a beard was named "Frank Beard". :blink:

I've got one that happened just yesterday.
This old bastard came in to have paint protection film put all over the front of his brand new Equinox so that he wouldn't get stone chips while driving. My boss finishes and asks him if he would like him to pull the vehicle out of the shop. Old Man River says, "No I think I can handle it". He jumps in and backs his SUV out...right into my bosses van. Chipped up the paint on his rear bumper. I guess he shouldn't have been so worried about the stone chips on the front.

There was this girl at my work named Nicole who backed into a customer's car and then took off. I remember talking with this girl Ashley about how stupid Nicole was and how irresponsible it was, ect, ect. Last week Ashley did the same thing. She'd only had her licence for a week and it was her boyfriend's car. Talk about stupid idiots. :crazydude:

Speaking about irony

I think us Canadian girls know a singer Alanis Morrisette who had a song about irony. But she didn't understand irony, nothing in her song was ironic, shitty, but not ironic.

like "traffic jam, when you're already late."

irony would be traffic jam while you're on your way to a convention about traffic jams

I think it's an ironic situation when a guy you've known for a while, and has been trying everything he can to get you to consent to having sex with him, can't get it up (spring a boner) when you finally are butt-naked and horny as hell in his bed with him. It's not just ironic, but really frustrating too.

I find it very odd that we want our significant others to be our best friend, but when that friendship is developed before dating most are scared to cross that line and take a friendship into a very meaningful relationship.

That was exactly the problem. He was looking at the camera, not the screen. :lol:

This happened to me once....We worked together, I had always been hot for her but I actually just played that down. One night out we were both pretty hammered and we started getting into it in my car.....she was rearing and ready but I couldnt get hard....too many shots....I sucked and fingered her but that's all.....she really didnt remember much about the night.

Then about a year and a half later, we were taking a drunk co-worker home and after dropping him off I was taking her home and the subject came up and well after we got back to her place we fucked GOOD!!!!! My most vivid memory was after we got out of the shower, I was laying on the bed and she started to blow me....then she flipped her hair over one ear and it stays with me cause as she did that she was swallowing my cock so i have the combined sensations of the warmth of her mouth on my cock and the cool wetness of her hair hitting my leg.

I thought that song was funny too.
Like, The guy who wouldn't fly all his life, then he finally goes on a flight and his plane crashes. That's not ironic. That's exactly what he expected. Irony would have been dying in a car wreck on his way to the airport.

Here's something that happened to me that I think fits in this thread:
I was hitchhiking on the interstate, standing in the breakdown lane with my thumb out. This car pulls over about 30-40 yards ahead. As I start to jog towards it, the car pulls ahead another 30-40 yards. This dickwad is just pulling my chain and has no intention of giving me a ride. Now that I'm 80 yards further up the road, I decide to walk up to the next exit and get a bite to eat. The dickwad is still over on the shoulder, but now he's just crawling along. Then, a couple of minutes after, he stops and I catch up to him. He ran out of gas. The whole time I've had my thumb out, and just as I get past his car, a van pulls over and gives me a ride. The van driver thought I was a passenger of the stopped car and was stopping to give me a ride to the gas station. I told him what had happened, told him where I was heading and he dropped me not far from there. I hope the driver of the car had to stand there for hours after I "caught" his ride. :haha:

Sure, that's irony. I hope the bastard found the irony in it himself, while he carried his gas can down the highway.
