difference between irony and coincidence
Rating Newest Oldest. Best Answer: coincidence is when someting happens that isnt expected. like you and your friend wear the same shirt to work. irony is when something is funny happens because of what happened or who it happened to. like if a fire house caught on fire. so irony is a fire house catching on fire a coincidence is 2 fire houses catching on fire at the same time on the same street. its hard to explain and kinda confusing but i hope that helped.
