Isn’t it ironic that Kaidan isn’t a romance option for male Shepards when you see him wearing a pink armor?
Isn’t it ironic that Shepard doesn’t decide to pick up all the possible unique weapons inside the Collector ship?
Isn’t it ironic that brainwashing and enslaving the Heretic geth is considered as a huge paragon option?
Isn’t it ironic to call asari “women” when they are not female?
Isn’t it ironic that there is a Conrad Verner glitch when the devs used him as an early example on how our decisions will affect ME2?
Isn’t it ironic that Jacob has a unique body structure while male Shepard has the exact same body structure as Udina?
Isn’t it ironic when TIM tells shepard that he/she always has a choice?

Not sure if this is ironic. Maybe it belongs in the "Really Bad Moments (It's driving me nuts)" thread...
The first time you talk to Bailey you can have him either reinstate Shepard's "alive" status, or set the C-Sec systems to ignore him... Yet in either case the advertisement stands call Shepard by name.
Why couldn't BioWare swich it to "citizen" or something is beyond me.
The instant I had Bailey list me as dead, I walked over to Avina and she immediately called me by name.
Why wouldn't Avina call you by your name, though? ID files are not deleted after death, and the ads don't have to check in the ID data if the subject is deceased, for obvious reasons.
The "citizen" thing only makes sense with Jack because she never had an ID to begin with.

No, because Shepard doesn't wear pink armor.
Oh, wait...

I just started a new playthough and found it strange that when you first ask a couple sources about what happened to the crew of the Normandy they state that most of them survived and Pressley is really the only person mentioned as croaking and yet one of your first missions is to collect 20 dog tags of crew members that bought the farm.

And Pressley's own tags are not among those 20.

isn't ironic that Ashley gets mad at you for working with Cerberus when she shares more of Cerberus' viewpoint then a paragon Shepard.

Isn't it ironic that they can bring Shepard back from the dead, but not have an automatic fish feeding system.

Going to go with the obvious...
Isn't ironic that a "Sole Survivor" Shepard would spend an entire game working with Cerberus without a single "How bout them Thresher Maws" line.

I do believe she wouldn't be mad if it weren't for all those pesky rogue agents you ran into the first game.

I'm sure the Reapers can facilitate other means for reproduction. Also In my opinion what we saw in Mass Effect 2 isn't really their form of reproduction. I think it is more a solution to deal with organic civilizations and plot points in Mass Effect 3 and the creation of a new Reaper is a bi-product.

Less about a particular issue, and more about things in the Mass Effect story/lore/conversations that just make you go 'wha?' Call it hypocrisy, call it a harmless contradiction, or just plain funny
These two very different things.

I'd think that every machine on the Citadel automatically recognizing that Commander Shepard is running around defeats the purpose as appearing to be dead. If clicking a button can instantly mean machines recognize you, then anything on the Citadel would.

This cannot be allowed.
I demand unique rippling abdominal muscles. And a unique ass, at the very least, I mean Ashley comments on it - but Harkin has the same ass. Troubling.

I know you. You're that guy. You're always around when I sing Alanis Morisette, "Isn't it Ironic". Correcting. Messin' with my groove.

Now now. Turn those high beams off. No singing while feeling Canadian, that's just silly.
Also, it's ironic Shepard is working for Cerberus! Zee twist!
