The Irony is Not Lost on Me

Charles Johnson and Aussie Dave beat me to it, but here it is in case you haven't seen it yet. Can you spot the irony in the following caption?

Here is what a handful of random people think about this article. But first, the fine print:
The opinions expressed here, even where approved for display, do not necessarily reflect the opinions of this website, the management, or any other entity or organization, with the exception of the Vast Zionist Conspiracy. Those opinions we represent in style, yo. Please keep the language in these comments clean, as this is intended to be a family-friendly, work-friendly website. Comments not compliant with this policy will be edited for content where necessary. Abusive or otherwise illegal comments will be reported to the proper authorities, up to and including the aforementioned Vast Zionist Conspiracy. The Management cannot and will not be held responsible for commenters making a spectacle of themselves, even if The Management are the said commenters in question. In other words, don't take yourself so seriously, folks. We're all here to discuss the news, and more importantly, to have fun. Now go get yourself into some OCD treatment program—you obviously need it if you actually read all of this mess.

*Ummm.. I still dont get it.

What do you mean, irony? I dont see any ironing boards! Maybe they left them at their immaculate homes that they love and cherish. Since that is where they leave their kids in safety; not running around riots with guns and rocket (cause that would be just stupid)

*I don't quite see it, but I'm betting the stylish dress shirts & slacks - something only the evil LL Bean could be behind - have something to do with that...

Or maybe it's the RPG accessory... :-P
