Definition of 'irony'

[Flak]

[QUOTE=Church_1MD;24665243]the use of words to convey a meaning that is the opposite of its literal meaning: the irony of her reply, “How nice!” when I said I had to work all weekend.[/QUOTE]
That example is terrible. If I say "Ugh I have to work all weekend" and my friend says "Sounds like fun!" that is [I]sarcasm[/I], not irony.

I'll bet that no one in this thread can come up with an "ironic" situation that everyone can agree is ironic.

Prove me wrong.

you know that song with that girl that sings about alot of examples of irony that aren't really ironic? (believe it's called ironic..) well isn't that a little ironic? i believe i just accidently attained nirvana!

[Niteshifter]

I see a lot of people where I live that use the word 'irony' in place of 'coincidence' or they use it in the wrong way altogether.

That's not ironic, it makes perfect sense because they're all sexually repressed.

No but the ironic part is how outspoken they are about countries like the USA and our half naked women.

There was a thread in the Fast Threads section defining all 4 definitions of Irony, I cannot remember which thread it is called.
