Post your best known cases of irony here. My example is from the HBO miniseries "Band of Brothers (excellent, btw)," where one Sergeant Malarchi finds himself wishing for a german luger throughout the whole production, even risking his neck on the battlefield to get one. Finally he retrieves one from a dead soldier, and only minutes later the thing goes off in his pocket, severing a large blood vessel in his leg and killing him in only moments. Very saddening, but the miniseries is based on a true story, so for now I can assume that it really did happen.

Some more....irony?

A friend of my wife was at a tavern on a Thursday evening, tossing back a few cold ones. Deciding he had had a bit too much to drive comfortably, he choose to walk the mile and a half to his house. On the way, a car ran up over the curb onto the sidewalk and stuck him. The driver of the car? Drunk.

THAT is irony.

Peace.
