thats not irony, irony is the opposite event occuring of what you expect. the use of words to convey a meaning that is the opposite of its literal meaning: the irony of her reply, “How nice!” when I said I had to work all weekend.

You're forgetting about situation irony. That's what this is.

irony involving a situation in which actions have an effect that is opposite from what was intended, so that the outcome is contrary to what was expected. how again is it ironic? its funny i will say that though.

Something that is supposed to put out fires IS on fire. That's contrary to what is expected.

Now, arguing about irony is one of the stupidest things anyone could do. I'll be on my merry way.

no, if they were putting out a fire with the fire hydrant, then the hydrant caught on fire, that would be situational irony

no, the stupidest thing someone could do is either not check the dictionary and use logic or shove a toothpick under their toenail and kick a wall. or get a chick pregnant.
