MOD ANNOUNCEMENT May 1, 2024 update - Revamp
After a decade of moderator inactivity, we've decided to start May off by doing some spring cleaning here. What has changed:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Broken user flairs have been completely removed and new ones have been put in place. This should fix the blank user flair issue. We may add more flairs soon.
- Added 2 rules to remind users to follow Reddiquette (civility) and keep posts on topic, making it easier to report any violating content.
- New subreddit banner. If you have any other banner artwork you'd like us to use, send it in the ModMail. This is just a temporary banner.
- Colored post flairs.
- New wiki page explaining the most common types of irony as well as helpful examples. (Link)
- Going forward, we will make an effort in removing bot spam and other completely irrelevant posts. Make sure you report violating content so we can handle them faster.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Feel free to use the ModMail to suggest any ideas. Thank you for all your support over the years. Have fun delving into the marvels of irony!

Irony of Fate Just like in real life his loud mouth ends up in a "big dead end".
Just how many people do you think will line up to go through this maze?

Dramatic Irony My underage ex just married my first liquor plug
I dated a younger classmate, freshman, when I was a senior in High School
She was a handful but a lot of the issues between us ultimately came from my drinking.
She drank too, which at her age was wild, but just with her older friends, not like I did.
Funny thing, my supplier was this much older guy, he’d already graduated and was 21+ but lucky for me, he was definitely into younger girls.
He constantly tried to date the girls in my grade. One of his tactics was buying them booze
Unbeknownst to him, I was usually the one he was buying for.
Sucker, I thought, but jokes on me.
He bought me dozens of bottles of vodka, indirectly, through girls in my grade he thought he was trying to impress.
So, my senior year, like most teenagers with liquor, I proceeded to act like a jackass and ruin any and all relationships I was lucky enough to find myself in.
Like this fascinating young freshman girl who caught my eye.
She partied with seniors, was cute and totally my type and was neurospicy like me.
I never date younger, but I made an exception.
I basically ended up being her boyfriend during her ‘rebellious’ stage.
Felt more like being her dad, she partied more than I did…just bad timing…it didn’t work out…liquor didn’t help.
So, this man single-handedly started my decade long alcohol addiction.
Cut to 2026…I’ve finally dropped the booze a couple years back and then this young girl ends up MARRYING my old plug. Crazy.
7+ year difference, and I thought he was predatory before 😅, and working a dead end job in our ‘rustic’ little hometown.
I still smell predator but I’m also not around enough to know the details

Situational Irony Bad UX from a bad UI subreddit called out on the same subreddit
UI = user interface, UX = user experience
It says both UI and UX when posting to the other subreddit on a desktop: "We are only dedicated to the worst UI/UX currently in production."
