- AngryDeuce, on 11/09/2009, -1/+21If that's really their house, I gotta say they have a great sense of humor. I'd be completely devastated if my house burnt down...
- asnider, on 11/09/2009, -1/+18Take your family to work day?
- keyvoh, on 11/09/2009, -0/+17Unfortunately the web server which houses this image was also located inside the house.
- forcedfx, on 11/09/2009, -1/+14Meh, training fire.
- RobotKeaton, on 11/09/2009, -0/+11The kid in the back caused the fire. Fell asleep with a joint in his hand.

- cawpin, on 11/09/2009, -2/+10A firefighter's name being Arson is, indeed, ironic.
- eastwood24, on 11/09/2009, -2/+7The great irony of this picture is the revelation that the family's last name is Arson.
- inkubusfan, on 11/09/2009, -0/+5job security. he's happy.
- offrdbandit, on 11/09/2009, -3/+8"Don't worry kids. You see that graffiti? Black people live here."
- PWoT, on 11/09/2009, -0/+5Nah, just a controlled burn for training. All the valuable stuff has been claimed out of the building.
- borez, on 11/09/2009, -1/+5They we're all smiles till they realised the insurance was out of date.
- DjBearPDX, on 11/09/2009, -1/+4Do not taunt Happy Fun Ball
- soundsofreason, on 11/09/2009, -1/+4Maybe it's her ex-husband's house.
- MAGZine, on 11/09/2009, -0/+3I'd be happy if I were a firefighter and saved what looks to be my family from a burning house.
- T3hJ3hu, on 11/09/2009, -1/+3I would hang that picture on my *****' wall.
- orangekid13, on 11/10/2009, -0/+1you forgot that the collective internet is stupid
- KingGorilla, on 11/09/2009, -0/+1All I need is my laptop and some internet, maybe my wallet
- Alli3388, on 11/09/2009, -1/+1It looks like a school or something, not a house. Not too strange to me that the family posed like that - assuming it just some old public building, it's more interesting than anything elese - but a FIREMAN shouldn't really look that please about a raging inferno, no matter what is burning down.
- ultraseamus, on 11/09/2009, -1/+1I think for their hearts to be warmed they would have to be a good deal closer to that fire.
- dawgma, on 11/09/2009, -1/+1Maybe they are just happy that no one was hurt.
- lurrch1, on 11/09/2009, -1/+1The kid in the white shirt looks like when started the fire when he dropped his joint.
- blue222, on 11/10/2009, -0/+0"Dad, Mom...I forgot to tell you that Jimmy took a nap before the fire... Is that Bad?"
- hfactor, on 11/09/2009, -2/+2Irony is when you mean the opposite of what you say, for humorous effect. But the word has been misused (by you as well) to the point where it has acquired a second meaning.
- zomgorly, on 11/09/2009, -1/+1we don't need no water...
- VicoN, on 11/09/2009, -1/+0I thought that would be fairly obvious
- 15charactername, on 11/09/2009, -2/+1@rafe101
Coincidences can be ironic. - rafe101, on 11/09/2009, -3/+1Me as well? No, I am using a classic definition of the word: "an outcome of events contrary to what was, or might have been, expected." The key is that it takes setup and construction, not simply a coincidence.
- asnider, on 11/09/2009, -4/+2That would not be ironic.
- rafe101, on 11/09/2009, -5/+2Fine, you all can continue in your ignorant misuse of the word, but don't do it around me, Alanis.
- rafe101, on 11/09/2009, -6/+1I don't think you understand the meaning of the word. Please take some literature classes and get back to me.
- rafe101, on 11/09/2009, -7/+1Still a coincidence.
If he had been adopted and found out after choosing that career that his real name was Arson, that would be ironic.
