What events do you find incredibly ironic, so much so, they gave you a mighty chuckle?

In 1 week, 4 dwarves, including my x-leader, are all caught in the river and swept downstream and over a waterfall. Forbidding the log they were after, and designating the beginning of a river damming project, I check to see who is my new x-leader.

MOSES.

HHAAAAA Religon jokes. 

I decided to kill off a bunch of migrants with babies (Useless haulers; i had 70, and theyre 20 or so babies) by droppin them into a pit filled with angry bears (Heheheh, was a goblin execution pit)

I decided that anyone who was able to escape the pit was worthy or surviving.

One migrant survived (With two dead babies), almost immediatly went melancholy, jumped off a small cliff, and was eaten... by a bear.

Putting an artifact hammer in the hands of my hammerer (retired hammerdwarf) to rid the fortress of a prolific vampire. He proceeded to go berserk and rampage through the hospital busting the heads of soldiers like ripe melons. Then he ripped into a crowd of children by the welll, and... y'know. Salsa-wallpaper.

Building an isolated bubble for the sole purpose of keeping a family of Dwarfs alive, only to find that the goblins had a direct route inside... And my military did not. Project Eden ultimately failed gratuitously.

Just the first that comes to mind.

Embarked on an isolated island, intended to live alone, isolationist, in peace and harmony. But then, I learn my parent civilization is still able to reach the island, and forget to set the population cap lower. So some migrants come. I slaughter them all..

So much for peace and harmony?

Assigned a seemingly useless dwarf as the first Captain of the Guard to begin creating some sort of countermeasure for vampires and crime, I figured that since I was well over 90 dwarves at this point I MUST have had at least one vampire in the hollows and a death was bound to happen sometime.

Not even 30 minutes later I get a message saying that one of my dwarves has been struck down, I go to check the combat log and see that my Captain of the Guard is involved. I go to check her unit screen and lo and behold, she has one kill, the dwarf that was just struck down.

Yeah.

Got a skilled marksvampire in a migrant wave, so decided to build a lookout/sniper tower to imprison him in. 

Just as it was completed and I was about to lock him in it, I got a message saying he had been missing for a week. (I still haven't found the body).

There were no goblin attacks, and nothing mentioning him in the combat log, so I can only guess he was killed by another vampire (I subsequently discovered I had at least two others).

^^^^^^^^^^
Vampires cannot and will not drain each other. Probably got mauled to death by a lungfish or a yak attack

A soldier who was patroling the living area saw a vampire (The CoG) draining blood of his wife, a similar situation happened after but with his children.

No, I just checked in Legends, and it's even more ironic than that

I told him to pull the lever at the top of his tower that would seal him in.  He did so, then went down to leave, and got killed by the drawbridge closing.
