In high school I hated cheerleaders and people in drama that thought they could act. I now have a daughter who is both a cheerleader and in drama, irony or Karma?

Both.

Irony Defined
Here's a pretty good example of irony...
American anti-kidnap expert vanishes

(EXCERPT)
Felix Batista had negotiated with kidnappers scores of times to win the release of victims. But the U.S. security expert has vanished after a series of mysterious phone calls, appointments and messages — an ominous turn in the struggle to rein in Mexico's increasingly aggressive kidnappers.
Ok tell me if this is irony or coinsidence.
I was dancing about in my office to "Safety Dance" and bashed my head on the sliding glass door.
Coincidence right?
All that's left of what we were is what we have become.
No, that's just stupid and another reason to leave your flask at home when you go to work.
I don't know the lyrics to the song, but if your intentions to dance to the song were to promulgate safety it would be irony. If your intentions were to get jiggy, then I'd say coincidence.
George Carlin has an "irony vs. coincidence" bit in one of his books.

Why does it not surprise me Jon can hurt himself dancing the safety dance?

In my experiences, there is no such thing as "coincidence". Everything has a purpose and a reason.
Momma told me there would be DAYS like this. SHe is coming back around, though...to put things back the way they should be. HIS story? Nah...we've had enough of that.
My skull straitened the door frame????
