actually eb replaces "enslave" with "expel" and "exterminate" with "enslave".

Irony only appears to be coincidental, unexpected, or clever. Hubris is unintentional though.

ahh yes, but being derisive or insolent is often intentional.

Wasn't the difference between sarcasm and irony, that sarcasm is being hurtful and irony more a fun way.

Example:

Irony:
Son comes home with his school results, all awesome grades. Dad tells: "Pff... Couldn't you do any better?"

Sarcasm:
Son comes home with the message he has to do the year all over again. Dad: Wow, you really did an awesome job at school, congratulations!
