Situational Irony
Situational irony is the contrast between what is expected to happen and what actually does happen. It refers to a specific situation or event. Verbal irony is the contrast between what someone says and what is actually meant. Think sarcasm. Dramatic irony is when the audience knows a key piece of information that a performer on stage does not. An example is Romeo and Juliet during the balcony scene. The audience knows Romeo is listening in on Juliet's private thoughts, but she does not. A conflict is a problem and the resolution is how it is fixed.
People are now using shorter words in text like lol, jk, or gtg. I think that could be an example.
