Ironic statement

Don'trust your heart because it's not on the right side.

Answer: true
Answered by Writeacher
The phrase "on the right side" has a double meaning -- is that what irony is?
Answered by Jill
Yes..
Answered by Jill
To say one thing when you mean something else - irony
Answered by Writeacher
I mean "the right side" means two things (double meaning): the right (as opposed to the left) and correct (as opposed to incorrect).

Is that what irony means?

Yes. "As opposed to the left"

I agree with Writeacher that it doesn't look like irony. I'd call it a play on words.
