Ironic?

When driving around on Christmas Day, a sign I saw struck me as pure irony. It was a sign for Arizona Tile. Wonder why I thought this was ironic, among other things I thought of? Here's why:

If you live in Arizona, what do you say when you're going to Arizona Tile? "I'm going to the tile store?"

If you live in California, what do you say when you're going to California Pizza Kitchen? "I'm going to the pizza kitchen?"

If you live in Montana, what do you say when you order the Big Montana from Arby's? "I'll have the Big?"

If you live in Kentucky, what do you say when you want to go to Kentucky Fried Chicken? "I'm going to fried chicken?"

If you live in St. Louis, what do you say when you order St. Louis Ribs? "I'll have ribs?"

If you live in New York and sell cheesecake, how do you advertise New York Cheesecake? Just plain "cheesecake?"

Finally, if you live in Philadelphia and sell Philly Cheesesteaks, what do you call them? Just "cheesesteaks?"

Hope you enjoyed this bit of irony. I sure did. Let me know if you have any others you'd like to share. Post a comment.
