Irony is the unexpected, where as I would argue that this is totally expected hypocrisy. Of course they don't want solicitors on the premises. Lawyers have a way of noticing when you break the law.

It's the first face hugger prototype. Man, they wasted three actresses before hitting on the idea that making it from unyielding metal might not be such a good idea after all... But hey, that's why now we have Sigourney Weaver, so be thankful for the little thingamajig!

These are ancient wedding forks. The handles would have had ornately carved and bejeweled bone or ivory fittings. Way back in the "Game of Thrones" era, the bride and groom at a wedding would playfully try to take a bite from the same hunk of meat using forks like these. It was a way of showing the world that they were "in it together". It could often be a bloody affair and left many a nasty scar, but this is actually where the tradition of smashing cake into each others mouths got started.
