Irony is a literary or rhetorical device, in which there is an incongruity or discordance between what a speaker or writer says and what he or she means, or what is generally understood.

What? I understand your example but how does it relate to me telling her to start prostitution cause she offered shower trips for fg (ironic on both sides that is)

You mean irony isnt easy to determine on the internet. Cause there is alot of irony (aka easy to find), but its hard to determine who is being ironic and who is actually meaning the things he says.

doesent relate to it, just a random example

In the modern lexicon, irony exists in six forms.
PROTIP: don't be that guy that brings up Morisette's song every time somebody mislabels something as ironic. It happens way too often

Textbook Irony
The first, used by purists and other assorted elitists, is the textbook definition — i.e., irony is an incongruity between what might be expected and what actually occurs.

Internets Irony
The use of Netspeak, leetspeak or AOL speak to subtly (or not so subtly) mock those who use it sincerely, without realizing its stupidity, is considered Internet irony. It is also ironic, in this sense, to post old memes or other Internets has-beens for humor purposes.

Internets irony shares a lot in common with hipster irony (see above), because it represents a self-awareness of the incongruity between expected (read: cool) behavior and unexpected (read: uncool) behavior. At this time it is unknown which type of irony manifested first.

The line between Internets irony and plain stupidity, as with hipster irony, is often a blurry one (irony users in places less able to discern irony may wish to avail themselves of the following image to make their intent clear:)
