Strange Ironies

[daleks]

It occured to me while I was out running earlier, that the boom in sportswear, i.e sweatpants, tracksuits, running shoes etc, is almost entirely fuelled by people who never do any exercise.

Can anyone else think of any strange ironies?

Brail on a drive through ATM.

Had this discussion just last week with my boys. My usual ATM is drive through - not anywhere anyone would ever walk up to.

When a situation gets hectic and frenzied, we say "It was a zoo." Yet, when you visit the zoo, it's quite a serene place.

why do our noses run while our feet smell?

the fact that the word phonetically is not spelled phonetically

the fact that there is a University of Oklahoma (Calm down Sooners, it's just a joke)

That a woman has a pair of panties but only one bra

That a light switch has the words "ON" and "OFF" printed on it... if it's on you can see it's on, and if it's off you can't see to read

"No purchase necessary; details inside."

The plural of goose is geese.
So shouldn't the plural or moose be meese?

L-A-U-G-H-T-E-R is pronounced lafter, so shouldn't D-A-U-G-H-T-E-R be dafter???

It is ironic that the song Ironic names a list of things that aren't ironic.

White Zinfandel is not white.

Yeah, what's up with that song? "Its like 10,000 spoons when all you need is a knife" is about the dumbest line I ever heard in a song!

Canada Dry ginger ale is neither made in Canada nor is it dry.

The place where people go to find jobs is often called the UNEMPLOYMENT Office.

the real ironic part is that Alanis seems to not know what Ironic means...

Rain on your wedding day is unfortunate, but it's not ironic

I think it is ironic that she knows what ironic means, but she sings a song about things that she believes to be ironic, but in fact aren't ironic at all...just sucky. thats the true spirit of irony.
