Irony Examples: Situational Brandon was an adult when he found out that he had been adopted. It came as quite a shock. He spent his whole life thinking that the world was one way when in fact it there was another layer to it. As much as he loved and cherished his adoptive parents, he became obsessed with locating and meeting his biological mother. He contacted the adoption agency but her information wasn’t listed. He followed up the few clues that he had and they led to dead-ends. He employed a world-class detective to help him locate his birth mother, but he came up empty handed. Brandon spent years and piles of money scouring the world for clues to her identity until he at last found her living right down the street from his house.

Irony Examples Irony Examples: Verbal A mean old man ate a large meal at a restaurant. The waitress tried to provide him with excellent service, but every time she brought him a dish, he complained. First he thought that the soup was too cold when it was hot. Then he said that his steak was dry and chewy, when it was moist and succulent. Then he complained that one of her blonde hairs was in his mashed potatoes, but the hair was actually grey like his own. She remained patient and continued to try to help him until the end of the meal, when he left her a quarter for a tip. She replied on his way out, “Thank you for the generous tip, Mister.”

Irony Examples: Situational Mr. Reinhart is the building inspector for the entire county. Anytime a person wants to add a permanent structure to their home or property, such as a deck or balcony, the building plans need to be approved by Mr. Reinhart before construction can begin. Mr. Reinhart checks to see that each plan is safe before construction begins. Once building begins, he checks to see that construction is going according to the plan. In a way, he is responsible for ensuring that every structure in the county is built properly. One day Mr. Reinhart was having a party at his house. He and his three guests were barbequing on the porch attached to his house, when the structure suddenly collapsed. Apparently, termites got into the wood and had been chewing away the support beams for several months.

Irony Examples: Dramatic Max hated Brussels sprouts, but his Dad always made him eat them. One night an idea came to Max that would allow him to escape this cruel fate: he would feed the Brussels sprouts to his dog. This seemed to go well enough at first, as the dog hungrily consumed the sprouts. His dad even congratulated him on eating them all. “Normally it’s a pain to get you to eat those, Max,” He said. “I’m glad that you stepped it up.” Max basked in his father’s approval and felt quite clever. Then his dog let out a yelp. Max grew concerned. The dog was walking in a circle and hacking. His Dad asked, “What’s wrong, Boy?” Max attempted to distract his father as he tended to the dog, “He probably just needs some space, Dad.” Max’s father looked at him curiously, right as the dog vomited a stream of Brussels sprouts.

Review Something that is ironic is unexpected. If unexpected by a character, it’s dramatic. If unexpected by everyone, it’s situational. If it’s sarcasm, it’s verbal.
