Read the story. Sam was home one night when the lights went out during a thunderstorm. He was looking in the kitchen closet for a flashlight to help him see, but it was hard to find the flashlight in the dark without using a flashlight! His circumstances struck Sam as pretty funny. This story contains what kind of irony?

Situational irony. He would have been able to find the flashlight had the light not gone out, so it is situational.
