What is irony?

Irony, Alanis, is when you get your husband's car cleaned, inside and out, for his birthday. Then, you go through the drive-thru at McDonald's - in gleaming, tricked-out Cavalier (ok, it's not tricked-out, but I thought that would be fun)- to buy a $1 large Dr. Pepper. And when the McDonald's guy hands you the big ole Dr. Pepper, something happens (you don't know what) and the it explodes all over you and your husband's newly-cleaned, tricked-out ride. The fact that you have sticky liquid dripping from your hair, in your eye and all over your clothes, and an ice chip on your boob...that's just extra information. The rest: irony.

Did you at least get another one? And, I think you should sue. Exploding Dr. Peppers have to be dangerous.

Julie, yes, I got another one. The McDonald's guy was like, "I can make you another one." As the crazy lady in the drive-thru pushed her Pepper-soaked hair from her face.

I'm sorry. I'm laughing. :D At least the car smelled extra nice. :)
