Isn't it ironic? What irony have you experienced recently?

Asked by linguaphile (14574points) June 7th, 2011

The first time temps hit 100 in Minnesota during my residency here, my AC breaks at home. 95 in the house, no breeze. After 5 days, still waiting for the AC guy- I suspect a lot of units are suddenly on the blink around town. Who would’uff’thunk I’d be craving AC in Minnesota?! Isn’t it ironic :D

It’s 63 and cloudy in Bakersfield, California. June 7th. Are you kidding me?? Our AC guy just laid off all his employees.

It’s ironic that I got three phone numbers for places that I applied to for jobs off the internet and I go to call them and they were all either out of service or a fax number.

Is this a sign that I should stay at my current position?

Rain on your wedding day…a free ride when you’ve already paid…free advice that you just can’t take…a traffic jam, when you’re already late…a “No Smoking” sign on your cigarette break…10,000 spoons when all you need is a knife…meeting the man of your dreams, then meeting his beautiful wife…

Newspaper today, from the Associated Press:
Motorcyclist protesting helmets hits head, dies.
A man riding bareheaded on one of about 550 motorcycles in an anit-helmet law rally lost control of his cycle, went over his handlebars, hit his head on the pavement and died, police said Sunday.
The motorcyclist likely would have survived the accident if he had been wearing a helmet, state troopers said.
