Urban's Picture Dictionary's entry for "irony"
To waste one second of one's life is a betrayal of one's self. I wonder what's on television...?

Guess I burned the bacon once too often - the smoke detector self-destructed.

Hi, I just love thinking up captions when I can but please do tell me if I've gone too far because I have an awful sense of humour !
The new 5-Sense alarm (costing 5 cents + $2550 alarm) didn’t sell as well as the manufacturers were hoping. The alarm was, in the event of a fire, designed to target each of the sensory abilities such as vision, hearing, taste, smell & touch in the hope it would alert somehow or other the potential victim in whatever state they were in that they were in danger. The features, which could be adapted according to lifestyle, include for example a large (flashing) hologram of the burning smoke-detector (pictured) along with an amplified noise of burning & crackling (or you could for example choose a loud recording of your least favourite band/singer/musician); the smoke detector itself releasing a black smoke (or any color you like) tasting & smelling of anything that you specified might wake you up in the event of such a tragedy. As for touch - well you can have the regular water sprinklers.............or...................... ?????

Wife, "Honey, I think we need to replace our smoke alarm..."
Husband, "Why do you say that dear?"
Wife, "Well, the oven timer started beeping this morning when the smoke alarm caught fire..."
