dramatic irony

"There is a type of situation, which occurs all too often and which is occurring at this point in the story of the Baudelaire orphans called 'dramatic irony.' Simply put, dramatic irony is when a person makes a harmless remark, and someone else who hears it knows something, that makes the remark have a different, and usually unpleasant, meaning. For instance, if you were in a restaurant and said out loud, 'I can't wait to eat the veal marsala I ordered,' and there were people around who knew, that the veal marsala was poisoned and that you would die as soon as you took a bite, your situation would be of one of dramatic irony. Dramatic irony is a cruel occurrence, one that is almost always upsetting, and I'm sorry to have it appear in this story, but Violet, Klaus and Sunny have such unfortunate lives that it was only a matter of time before dramatic irony would rear its ugly head."

Snicket, Lemony; A Series of Unfortunate Events : bk 2 ; The Reptile Room. HarperCollins Publishers Inc; 1999 ISBN 0064407675

Und im selben Buch der denkwürdige Satz: "He taught them not to give the Green Gimlet Toad too much water, and to never, under any circumstances, let the Virginian Wolfsnake near a typewriter."
