Answer:

Sarcasm is a form of verbal irony.

Step-by-step explanation:

I love when my socks get soggy wet after getting stuck in the rain! Its one of my favorites!

-- We know that this is undesirable, as it is sarcastic. You would not expect one to actually enjoy this, therefore you would not expect them to say it, making it ironic that they would say such a thing. Any sarcasm works.
