cruel irony 

The act of using somebody's words against them, usually when something to their great detriment is about to be inflicted upon them. Usually in the form of a gloating statement.
Kuzko: "Okay, I admit it. Maybe I wasn't as nice as I should have been. But, Yzma, do you really want to kill me?"

Yzma: "Just think of it as you're being let go...that your life's going in a different direction...that your body's part of
a permanent outplacement."

Kronk: "Hey, that's kind of like what he said to you when you got fired."

Yzma: "I know. It's called a cruel irony...like my dependence on you."

conscious irony 

Irony's tendency to reference itself in skeumorphic form from one culturally-manifestive medium to the next. Irony as a self-referencing (meta-meta - - > self-actualized) entity. Culturally-manifestive mediums include literary--> cinematic - - > existential - - > aesthetic - - > conscious.
Conscious irony or irony's ability to self - reference from one medium to the next implies that it is self-sentient; that consciousness is an attribute of irony rather than irony being an attribute of consciousness

Layers of Irony 

Unironic: I am not gay

Ironic: I aM gAy *while clearly not gay*

Post ironic: man bro, you’re looking hot *taken sarcastically or said sarcastically, but is actually gay*

Meta ironic: *kisses homie and insists it isn’t gay. No one knows if he’s gay or not*

Hyper ironic: *becomes gay, but does so ironically*
Person 1: “bro that’s poggers”
Person 2: “did you just seriously say that?”
Person 1: “nah dude I’m just using layers of irony. I used it so ironically that I use it seriously, but it’s still ironic”

grammatic irony 

When a person correcting someone else's grammar, spelling, or general intelligence makes a grammar or spelling mistake themselves. This does not count if the person has intentionally made the mistake. The phrase comes from "dramatic irony", but is not actually a form of irony.
On an Internet forum:
> > These stupid people are just crybabies who complain when they don't get they're way!

> Your an idiot because you can't spell!

Oh, the grammatic irony....

post-irony 

Irony beyond the scope of existential (postmodern) irony. Usually falls into the scope of aesthetic nihilism (skeuomorphism (memes)) or ironic consciousness (conscious irony).
Memes and their predecessors, GIF's, are platforms for post-irony if not post-ironic themselves.

hood irony 

Have you ever heard of hood irony kid? I bet not since you clearly don't follow top tear Instagram meme pages such as Daquan, Worldstar Hiphop, Grandayy, Dolan Dark, Etc. You fucking disgust me in a way that I can not even describe. Only true memers know the true dankness and pure humor fantastically and masterfully hidden in irony and hood irony. Impact font, farts, poop, the n-word, all hilarious, clever, and quirky things that your beta mind will probably never even begin to try to understand the pure dankness of. I truly hate people of your kind, beta cuck normies, kek. Fuck off normie.
