    You are good enough. If a tech geek/nerd like me can pull it off, you can.

    I confess, I don't cook. I don't know how. If it's not something you simply heat up in the oven or something basic like spaghetti/tacos. I don't make it. (and by spaghetti I mean boil the noodles and dump some preggo on top) I need to take a home ec. class.

    It’s ironic that though this is a fitness site, it has a way of making me feel terrible about myself

    Okay that’s probably not ironic. I have absolutely no idea what ironic really means. There’s always some punk nearby to tell me “that’s not ironic, that’s a coincidence”. DON’T TELL ME HOW I FEEL, TODD

    It's ironic that your definition of ironic was entirely unhelpful

    That's a coincidence!

    I just assume what I think is ironic is wrong.

    Common Examples of Situational Irony
    • The police station gets robbed. Again, the expectation is that professional crime fighters would be able to help themselves; in this case, by securing their own station.
    • A post on Facebook complaining how useless Facebook is. This is ironic because one would expect someone who dislikes Facebook to stay away from it instead of using it to make their point.
    • A traffic cop gets his license suspended because of unpaid parking tickets. Because the traffic cop is usually the one issuing tickets, most people would assume he always followed the rules.
    • A pilot has a fear of heights. This situation is ironic because airplane pilots spend most of their time at work high in the air.
    • A member of PETA wears leather shoes. Because PETA members work to protect animal rights, one would assume they would avoid products made form animal skins.
    • The teacher fails the test. Teachers are usually the ones giving tests rather than taking them, so most people assume they would be expert at passing tests.

    Examples of Situational Irony in Literature
    • Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare - “O my love, my wife! Death, that hath sucked the honey of thy breath, Hath had no power yet upon thy beauty.” Romeo finds Juliet drugged and assumes she is dead. He kills himself but then she awakens, sees that he is dead and kills herself. This is ironic because both lovers killed themselves over a mistaken assumption, leading to a tragic outcome instead of the happy ending the lovers expected.
    • Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury - In this book the firemen set books on fire rather than put out fires. The book has been on the top 100 list of banned books in America, which is ironic because the novel is about the dangers of book burning and censorship in society.
    • The Gift of the Magi by O. Henry - In this story, the wife cuts her long hair and sells it to have the money to buy her husband a pocket watch chain. He sells his watch to buy her a hair accessory, leaving both with a useless gift, which was not what they expected for their efforts.

    Then a definition that doesn't actually explain the meaning of something would fit, wouldn't it?

    I need more coffee.

    In the episode of Friends where the friends go to London for Ross and Emily’s wedding, Chandler says, "I'm so glad we're having this rehearsal dinner. You know, I so rarely get to practice my meals before I eat them."

    Ironically, these are all examples of hypocrisy
