Everyday irony
 
So, like, when a 17 year old kid who looks like he weighs 300 lbs of pure blob-fat comes into the store that I work at, and he's wearing a shirt with Michael Jordan (Slam dunk airtime thing) logo that takes up almost the entire front of the shirt, that kind of strikes me as fucking hilarious irony.

I also thought it was funny when he told me "You should quit soda, it'll make you fat," and he then took a drink from a beer. It was a Heineken, to be fair, but still.

Post away.

Working at retail around this time I have to sell those little MDA shamrock thingies. They're only $1, but many people refuse to buy them.

Some are buying like $500+ dollars in stuff, but can't buy a $1 shamrock.

My personal favorites are the peoples that say "I don't have the money." Then buy three Gatorade drinks for their kids at 1.50 each. :B

People that act like $50 for a new game is a ripoff, yet that name-brand pair of jeans is worth $90.

What's even worse are those idiots who pay 50 plus dollars on those jeans that are 50% holes. I mean why would you pay that much money to look like a hobo? If you want jeans that look like crap, just take a belt sander to your own old pair of jeans.

When doctors, nurses...or hell, anyone who works in the healthcare industry smokes. They, more than anyone, KNOW the effects of cigarettes on the human body.

How somebody's girlfriend nearly has a jealous panic attack every time a girl even looks at him funny, yet thinks its okay for her to spend a day at a beach in a bikini with a guy who's wanted to go out with her for years.

It didn't end well either. And now I'm bitter. In case you couldn't tell.

Nope.

Besides, it's only ironic considering he's wearing basketball gear, something I doubt he could (or does) play.

This is ironic based on your tastes:

I was just yapletin it away in comp apps today, and some guy right behind me is blasting Fergy(has his iPod hooked up to the minispeakers). I tell him to turn his crap off, and he tells me to turn mine off (I have headphones, and am listening to Scorpions) He then says im listening to crap (despite not being able to hear it) and tell him his is junk. I then tell him I will destroy his +1 iPod of cruddy music,

I've been working two jobs for the past year or so. One job is working with my mom. She has her own independent business where she takes care of terminally ill patients. She doesn't always have work so I have a second job that's fairly stable, working at a fast food establishment, so that if I need to I can pick up more hours whenever my mom doesn't have any patients or just not enough work. I've been wanting to quit my job and work with my mom full time but like I said it has a stable outlet. I would assume that between the two jobs my fast food one is always going to be there. I assumed wrong. In fact it seems as tho my job with my mom is significantly more stable because we recently had a tornado rip through our town and tear the place I worked at to pieces. I'm out a job. But the tornado didn't take away the dying patients... Actually this is just morose rather than ironic.
