Examples of Irony

DEFINITION: Irony: (noun) When the literal meaning of something is the opposite of the intended meaning.

EXAMPLES:

I’m hyper, but I have to take a stimulant to calm down enough to focus. It’s like going upstairs to get downstairs.

The older my mom gets, the younger she wants to look. She is dressing like a preschooler now. She has become Benjamin Button.

My grandparents own a business named Pewter Palace. It is not a palace. It is a flea-market stall the size of a Tic Tac box.

I’m coordinated on a field, track, or court, but somehow can’t walk two feet without bumping into someone or spilling or breaking something.

My teacher thinks I should be a stand-up comic, but no one in my family thinks I’m funny except my brother Drew and my grandpa, and the only reason Grandpa laughs at my jokes is because I’m pretty sure I’m his favorite grandchild. (Although I have a sneaking suspicion he’s telling Drew the same thing.)
