Irony and Sarcasm

[Colten]

Irony would be when teacher says that after you say oh goodie. Or what?

No, the teacher said hes failing then he said 'Oh goodie!'
Hes failing the class, indicating hes stupid, and in reply to finding out he thinks its a good thing, also indicating hes stupid

Then why is it the same if it's not?

I think WhoDa? confused me a little with "Irony and Sarcasm"... It should have been "Irony/Sarcasm".

Actually, sarcasm is a type of irony. Verbal irony to be exact.

There's verbal, situational, and dramatic.
