Irony

Irony is the use of words to convey the opposite of their literal meaning. Similarly, irony may be a statement or situation where the meaning is contradicted by the appearance or presentation of the idea

Many people believe verbal irony to be synonymous with sarcasm, but sarcasm is only one of the common types of verbal irony. It appears in four basic forms:

1- sarcasm (saying “Oh, fantastic!” when the situation is actually very bad)
2-Socratic irony (pretending to be ignorant to show that someone else is ignorant: "I'm confused, I thought your curfew was at 11. Isn't it past 12 now?")
3- understatement (saying "We don't get along" after having a huge fight with someone)
4- overstatement (saying "I'll die if I can't go to the concert!")

Irony

A lack of insight into one's own shortsightedness.

Oh the irony of people using their smartphones and laptops to post on the internet how investment in science is a waste of money.

Hym "The REAL irony in using the word irony in relationship to AOC and MTG is that THEY ARE THE EXACT SAME THING! The very fiber of their beings are the same! They're the same picture! WHY!? Why are you guys like this? How do you not see!?"

Irony

Wow, yeah, conservatives do not understand irony at all do they? Damn. I'm watching the Brett Cooper thing on Blake Lively and I'm like... Does she not see the parallel there? Or does she? Is she my ultimate herald?

Hym "Speaking of Irony and in-group preferential treatment, I just realized that I am a super minority whose only 'friends' have been of the same super minority. Blacknativewhite. And I wonder how much of this is driven by racism... And then I think 'I should own a free tesla... I created A.I. and am the greatest mind who has ever lived... Elon should give me a tesla for free- NOT THE CYBER TRUCK ELON!' He owes me for lying about creating A.I. (Because he knows it was me!) and is a good way to prove that retardation can be rehabilitated."
