- irony of situation: sharp contrast between what the characters/readers wish/intend and what real life/the situation is like.
An example would be a man who takes a step aside in order to avoid getting sprinkled by a wet dog, and falls into a swimming pool." (Lars Elleström, Divine Madness. Bucknell Univ. Press, 2002)
