Answer:

"My uncle was arrested another time-did I tell you?-for being a pedestrian."

"You know, I'm not afraid of you... So many people are. Afraid of firemen, I mean."

"I'm seventeen and I'm crazy. My uncle says the two always go together. When people ask your age, he said, always say seventeen and insane."

Explanation:

Irony is a literary term that is used to convey the opposite meaning of what is intended, usually to create humor or emphasis. There are different types of irony such as:

1. Dramatic irony: where the audience knows the outcome, but the actors do not.

2. Verbal irony: when a person says something totally different from what they mean

3. Tragic Irony: this is a type of dramatic irony, but the audience is aware of an incoming tragedy.

For example: I had a near miss today when a dog ran out in front of me.

Or: He had a close call when his foot almost slipped over the edge of the cliff.
