Claim to be an anarchist and then spend the rest of the time telling other people what to do.


 * I don't think there's a contradiction here. Anarchism is believing that there shouldn't exist a mechanism/mechanisms for forcing one's will on other people.

See also (not a Wikipedia entry). Irony depends on a contradiction (American Heritage Dictionary says "An expression or utterance marked by a deliberate contrast between apparent and intended meaning".

If I wrote "Claim to be a hunter and then spend the rest of the time shooting things", there'd be no contradiction/contrast and no irony here. I was attempting to point this out.
