Spell 'Irony.'

Remember this elementary school spelling exercises? The teacher would give the student a word, which they would 'spell' and then ask the student to 'use the word in a sentence.' In doing this the student thus demonstrated correctness in spelling and comprehension of word usage.

Here is an example of that scenario:

Teacher: "Billy,spell irony."
Billy: "Irony, i-r-o-n-y."

Teacher: "That's correct, now use irony in a sentence, Billy."
Billy: "There is 'irony' that General Flynn chanted 'lock her up,' (Hillary Clinton) for crimes Hillary Clinton did not commit and it looks like General Flynn could be 'locked up' for crimes he did commit."
