    @Xaxton2 No, irony and sarcasm are two different things with very similar concepts.

    Sarcasm - The use of words expressing something other than their literal intention (to wound, considering its etymology). E.g. "Sure, it's clearly a good idea to jaywalk in the middle of a busy road".

    Irony - When a circumstance is the polar opposite of what you would expect it to be. E.g. if a police officer is arrested for drug dealing.

    The two things may overlap occasionally, though.

    "Ironical" is a synonym for sarcasm for example. I was being Ironical/sarcastic. means the same thing. If this helps illustrate your point.

    Well I think Ms. Webster lied to me about the definition of irony, because according to her, Irony has the same meaning as sarcasm, just look under the definitions... >.>'
