Irony is when things seem contrary to expectations and therefore funny. Ironical situations are those that make us smile wryly and shake our heads. Maybe some of these ironical situations and ideas will as well:
This is the tone deaf advert for a phone service provider – asking people to ‘call’ when there is no service. How? Therein lies the rub!

This little doggie had recently received a certificate for passing an obedience training course. Clearly the doggie forgot those lessons pretty quickly.

Anu may presume to be teaching English but apparently has no idea about the importance of using simple punctuation marks such as an apostrophe.
