This is an unofficial contest, though there will be prizes.
I'm looking for Ironic photos from either Real Life or Guild Wars that are clever and well thought up.
There will be 4 prizes, one first for the first person able to identify the irony of the photo i'm submitting, the next prizes will be for the best overal photos submitted by a user.
The Prize for identifying the irony in my picture is a Mini-Jade Armor, undedicated.
I'll announce winners of the submissions on november 30.
My Pic.
Have fun!
edit: and no the irony of my photo is not that they are still full!
also, no limit on user submissions, the more stuff you throw against a wall, the better chance of it sticking.
Winners!
1st Place - Exofluke's Shadow Blade pic.
2nd Place - King of Vulpes' story of ADT lock-pick. (because i've done it too and it's hilariously ironic and i connected to it instantly, lol)
3rd place- Rogue's Kitty-Hawk picture.
message me in-game. rogue must fight me 1 v 1 for his prize... just kidding.

RE: Unofficial Irony Contest
you have all that alcul but nothing to drink it from.
OMG! the irony! what's funny is that owner obviously made that too look like a joke, but it looks like every other one out there is only 1 notch down from that one!
in my city, there's a guy that religiously 'cruises' his 1977 Brown, Rusty New Yorker 4 dr... it has a plywood spoiler, pop-riveted hood scoop, coffee can muffler, and he has christmas lights power stapled to the rocker panels as ground effects lighting, he's awesome and chicks love him. import tuners hate him!
there was also a Plymouth Reliant that was made mostly of cardboard body panels one day, but it was pulled over before it made it to the cruising street.
being a performance buff and car guy i was down there a lot with my mustangs and 4x4. i loved seeing the guys that made fun of tuners.
a little story about tuners, i bumped into a gent with a 95 Mits 3000GT AWD, he claimed he had 400hp+ and wanted to race my friend christina, a girl no less. it was modded from the outside it appeared to be performance, with its flashy purple paint and all the big spoilers and loud mufflers.
he raced my friend christina's 1991 mustang, which looked 100% stock from the outside. she beat him. he complained it was because she had drag radials. so i pulled up in my 1991 mustang, which was way more modified under the hood and drive-train than christina's, but i had street tires on it. we raced and it was an unbelievable butt-kicking.
i said, man, you're lucky this aint pinks.
he then complained about how his was only a 3.0L engine, though it was twin-turbo'd and AWD and i had a nice naturally aspirated 302 V8. =) funny how there's always an excuse for sucking.
the bloke never had a chance through a 1/4 mile run, top speed, yea, the 3000GT would've beat my mustang, but i didn't have it for top speed. with a 4.10 posi, 295 width tires, headers, 3.5" straight pipes, intake and exhaust manifold upgrades, cold air, ignition, distro, plugs and wires, and an edelbrock throttle body, it was a champ stoplight car. =)
best time: 12.9 1/4 mile
cost of car: $3,000, it had all that stuff just done to it before i bought it. the previous owner had a slip of it doing a run at 12.5, but when i got it, it was bagged, but still snappy.
sold car for: $3,000 with bald tires 3 months later, just before winter.
and that's the history of the 91 stang. :P i'm sure now the 18 year old that bought it has wrapped it around a pole.
All lies and jest, still a man hears what he wants to hear and disregards the rest.
The guy in the 3000 AWD just doesnt know how to drive. I was driving my buddies twin turbo '94 Supra [3.0L as well but only 2 wheel drive] and it would toast any American made car.
True story: I drove the car from Sacramento to LA: one ticket @ 110. It was me in the Supra, a new Charger and mid 90's mustang. We were all just cruising down the 5 freeway between 80 and 130MPH for awhile. One cop got all 3 of us! It was fun though.
the cop car was likely american made, couldn't toast that one eh? just kidding.
thinking off the top of my head of yank cars that are savage and really untouched in a straight line and on the track from anything currently made in japan in the last 20 years.
stock, remember, and remember, whatever you do to a 350Z you can do to a viper or corvette as well.
From Chev Dealers: Corvetter Z06 2008 sub 12 1/4 .99g RH
From Chrysler Dealers: Dodge Viper 2008 sub 12 1/4 1.00+RH
From Ford Dealers: Saleen S7 & S7 Twin Turbo 2008 Low 11 1/4 & 2007 Ford GT low 11 1/4
not even the new Nissan GTR (skyline) sub 13 1/4 .95 RH will ever compete with these cars heads up and win overal., maybe in fuel economy. :P
used 1995 Viper > than Sti and Evo as well, track and straight line, same price tag.
edit, wow things go off topic quick, but it's fun! need more ironic pics!

we have a saab 93 station, not standard but engine is tuned huge. can go from 0-100 Km/h in gear 2 :p and when u drive 140 and u hit the gas u still get pushed in ur seat!
awsome car, saab is an underestimated car
i dont have a picture but sometimes when i forget my house key i use my ADT security sign from in front of my house to rig the door open. pretty ironic i guess. also to the one hosting this, ppl are just gonna google "irony" then go to images and get pics from there.
