The phrase "on the right side" has a double meaning -- is that what irony is?
Yes..
To say one thing when you mean something else - irony
I mean "the right side" means two things (double meaning): the right (as opposed to the left) and correct (as opposed to incorrect).
Is that what irony means?

Yes. "As opposed to the left"
I agree with Writeacher that it doesn't look like irony. I'd call it a play on words.
Thank you both.
You're very welcome.
Then it's a pun
Ah, yes -- you're right.
=)
Thank you again.
YW!!
