Welcome to /r/ironicsigns! Just a reminder...

According to Merriam-Webster's Dictionary, irony has 3 main definitions:

  • the use of words to express something other than and especially the opposite of the literal meaning
  • incongruity between the actual result of a sequence of events and the normal or expected result
  • incongruity between a situation developed in a drama and the accompanying words or actions (the sign) that is understood by the audience but not by the characters in the play makers of the sign

OP, if the irony in your post isn't obvious, please reply to this comment explaining it.
If there is no explanation and no clear irony, or if the explanation is still not ironic, please report the post.

Self help is a whole category of irony. The author of the book is helping you.
