Consider the following quotation from the postmodern work The Broom of the System by David Foster Wallace: “Modern party-dance is simply writhing to suggestive music. It is ridiculous, silly to watch and excruciatingly embarrassing to perform. It is ridiculous, and yet absolutely everyone does it, so that it is the person who does not want to do the ridiculous thing who feels out of place and uncomfortable and self-conscious . . . in a word, ridiculous. Right out of Kafka: the person who does not want to do the ridiculous thing is the person who is ridiculous. [...] Modern party-dance is an evil thing.” In a similar style, write about something in your life that you find ironic. Follow Wallace’s example by describing the event and then analyzing the ways in which it is ironic
