Posting something that is ironic to the discussion at hand, or may not even be related at all, dragging the discussion off-topic.
Irony posting does not have to be intelligent, humorous, or on-topic. It can be another way of getting up your post count like a true douche bag. Irony posting is also a way to anger people and may be considered trolling. (Especially to those with an elitist sense of humor.)
Forum poster 1: "Nyoro~n"
Forum poster 2: "What the fuck?"
Forum poster 3: "He's just irony posting. He'll probably get banned soon."

Self-irony is the act of reprimanding oneself
You know I don't the real world, I am an economist after all, people just tends to act different than they should. But that's just a healthy dose of self-irony.

When an action is performed by one person, intending to make another's life easier, however does the opposite and the recipient is too nice too say anything about it.
Canadian Irony: Jim left Bob's hat out where he could easily find it, however, Bob spent hours looking for it because it was not where he left it.

Circular Irony is when an idea or more specifically an ideology is employed that contains contradictions within itself that render the idea or ideology invalid in an unexpected way
An example of this would be freedom of speech. While I understand that it is fundamental to our way of life, it does contain potential contradictions that defeat it. These are people such as hard left feminists or social justice warriors that would use their powers of freedom of speech to shut down opinions they don't like. This violates the powers of freedom of speech of others and themselves because without freedom of speech, they do not have the power to shut down opinions they don't like. This is a mind spinning paradox that they themselves have yet to figure out.
Person 1:RAR I'm an angry feminist and your freedom of speech does not matter to me!!!
Person 2: Hey, that is circular irony. If you try to shut down my freedom of speech, you shut down your own freedom of speech because it is a human right.
Person 1: SHIT!!!
