Anything really ironic that you notice more than most people?

George Carlin used to ask why people drive on the parkway, but park on the driveway.


I used to wonder why the only member of ZZ Top who didn't have a beard was named "Frank Beard".

Here's something that happened to me that I think fits in this thread:
I was hitchhiking on the interstate, standing in the breakdown lane with my thumb out. This car pulls over about 30-40 yards ahead. As I start to jog towards it, the car pulls ahead another 30-40 yards. This dickwad is just pulling my chain and has no intention of giving me a ride. Now that I'm 80 yards further up the road, I decide to walk up to the next exit and get a bite to eat. The dickwad is still over on the shoulder, but now he's just crawling along. Then, a couple of minutes after, he stops and I catch up to him. He ran out of gas. The whole time I've had my thumb out, and just as I get past his car, a van pulls over and gives me a ride. The van driver thought I was a passenger of the stopped car and was stopping to give me a ride to the gas station. I told him what had happened, told him where I was heading and he dropped me not far from there. I hope the driver of the car had to stand there for hours after I "caught" his ride.
