In the short story, “The Notorious Jumping Frog of Caleveras County” by Mark Twain, there are many examples of irony. Some types of irony include, verbal irony, situational irony, and dramatic irony.

In the comic book Bitch Planet, writer Kelly Sue DeConnick and artist Valetine De Landro create a parallel universe which contains a place called Bitch Planet, where women are sent to for being non-compliant. Being charged with non-compliance results from a variety of crimes: too fat, too thin, too secular, too religious, the list goes on. Though at first this may seem like an unrealistic exaggeration, after a close reading, it becomes clear the Bitch Planet and the things that happen there are a cultural metaphor for our own world. One of the ways in which DeConnick and De Landro draw this parallel is by using various aspects of the Megaton and the events leading up to it as a satire on gender roles, gender inequality, and society’s role in these areas. As soon as Kam agrees to arrange a team of women to participate in the Megaton, the Megaton instructional video begins playing.

Strict penalties resulted in the beginning of the “war” on heroin. Despite the spending of 100 billions of dollars over a course of 40 years, efforts seemed to have made little difference in the amount of heroin users.
