Friends Of Irony
Ironic pics... or are they?

Amongst a laundry list of other accolades, Alanis Morissette
famously wrote a song about irony that contained no actual
ironic examples, then more famously wrote a song about Full
House's Uncle Joey, which is just gross. For more hard
hitting irony than rain on your wedding day, hit up Friends
of Irony.

A carefully curated photo-blog from the same crew of Seattle
net-ninjas behind Autocomplete Me and Oddly Specific, FOI is
serving up "daily delicious irony", which you'd previously
only gotten from hilariously eating haggis. Some of the
tastiest examples:

Big Brother Is Watching You: Showing a sign in Barcelona
that proclaims a 500 meter "zone of vigilance" in the
city's Placa De George Orwell monitored by surveillance
cameras, but who really knows if those things even work,
since they've been there since 1984.

Sweet Delicious Irony: Asserts that irony "strikes at the
best of times" while depicting a member of the KKK engulfed
in flames standing beside an untouched cross, revealing yet
another of the Klan's hated enemies: fire safety.

My Freedom. None For You: Showing men angrily protesting
beneath a sign telling "freedom of expression" to "go to
hell", although they're strangely cool with creative license.

In an ironic twist, they accept submissions, except from
Alanis Morrisette, although that hasn't really stopped her
from sending in all these pictures of free rides when you're
already late, but who would've thought? It figures.
