A farce is a type of movie or play that features unlikely and silly situations, often involving exaggerated and foolish behavior.

A cartoon is a movie or TV show created by photographing a series of drawings or models instead of using real people or objects. In this type of animation, characters and scenes are illustrated in a stylized manner, and each frame is slightly different from the last. When these frames are played in sequence, they create the illusion of movement and action. Cartoons often focus on entertaining stories and can vary in style and complexity.

A pun is a form of wordplay that uses the multiple meanings of a word or similar-sounding words to create a humorous or clever effect. It involves a play on words where a word or phrase is used in a way that suggests different meanings or interpretations. For example, in the phrase "I used to be a baker, but I could not make enough dough", the pun is on the word "dough", which refers both to the mixture used to make bread and slang for money. This play on words adds humor by linking two different meanings of the same word. Puns are often used to add wit or a clever twist to writing and speech.

Irony is a way of using language to say something that is intentionally contrary to what is meant, often to criticize or mock. It employs clever or sarcastic language to highlight flaws or shortcomings indirectly. For example, if someone who is consistently late is called "Mr. Punctual", the remark uses irony to emphasize the opposite of the truth and to subtly criticize the person's lack of punctuality. This form of irony is used to express disapproval or mock someone or something by pointing out their flaws in an indirect and often humorous way.
