Hmm Have you seen the Emperor's New Groove?Well there is this skit in the movie called a cruel irony where yZMA REPEATS WHAT kUZCO TOLD TO HER WHEN HE FIRED HER.....Ex :)


Kuzco: 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.
Kuzco: I can't believe this is happening!

Yeah, sounds like Irony to me. And I have to agree whole-heartedly with Etha Nox.

Edgar Allen Poe was the master. He had a character named "Fortunado"... who ended up being sealed alive in the catacombs.

Name the story anybody?

i heard these ones in class last year..........

-"meeting the man of your dreams, then meeting his beautiful wife"

-"a no-smoking sign on your cigarette break"

-"Mr. Play-it-Safe was afraid to fly. He packed his suitcase and kissed his kids goodbye. He waited his whole damn life to take that flight. And as the plane crashed down, he thought, Well isn't this nice"


-"rain on your wedding day"

-"A death row pardon two minutes too late..."
:]

well here's a sad one:
martin luther king jr. was killed in a way (violent) that was opposite of what he believed in (non violent)

here's a funny one:
i dislocated my kneecap by lunging. (lunging was supposed to help prevent bad things to happen to your knee & leg...guess not)

It's ironic that I am answering this question, even though I don't have a good answer for it.

If a serial killer were killed by a serial killer who made cereal, that would be very ironic.

...??
