From time to time I post Ironic pictures. You can find prior posts by typing in “irony” on the search box on my home page. I hope you enjoy these as you try to shake off the effects of L-triptophan in your turkey, the shock of long periods of exposure to your family, and overeating while sitting stationary watching others exercise playing football… (hint – that was irony too.) My best example of irony ever is – A vegetarian being killed by a man-eating plant. If you know a better example, please let me know.
























I love this! I remember a friend who wrecked his car in high school when he crashed it into the front window of… the local collision repair center. I love ironic stuff. 🙂 I’m so glad I found your blog. I’ll be hanging out here more.

Thanks! I try to keep an interesting mix of science, humor and observations, with just a tiny sprinkling of my writing.

Keep it up! I find it very interesting. I too like to observe and then write what I find. 🙂

My favorite was: A flooded transformer stration. Slightly above water level a poster ad by the utility (hydro power): “Here the power of water is transformed into electrical energy”.

Should be ‘station’ of course, not ‘stration’. This was a typo, not irony 😉

Reblogged this on Theory and Practice of Trying to Combine Just Anything and commented:
Seth Godin tells us in All Marketers Are Liars that oxymorons are great (in marketing – think along the lines of: Military Intelligence). Michael Bradley, the Time Traveler, proves in his blog that oxymorons are actually everywhere in real life. Just watch out and have your camera ready!
Unfortunately I do not have one of my favorite irony photos any more: A transformer station flooded with water with a poster ad (by the hydro power utility) attached: Here the power of water is converted into electrical energy.
