Its ironic because that was the last house that was there and it burned down from a fire like all of the other houses except this was a house fire not a bomb

What I think is ironic , is the fact that in the beginning of the story, the house got through the nuclear disaster, which is way more intense than a the fire at the end of the story. Yet, the house still burned down. The house was just doing its thing.

you really don't expect the house to burn down after you see that it is the only house left and you think it will be this house that will never fall down but they hit you with the house burning down and "dying" because of the fire

One thing that was ironic about the ending was the fact that the voice clock actually talked. After reading about the house burning down, you would not think that anything would've survived. The author seemed to have been making a big deal about the whole house burning down, yet, at the very end of the story, the voice-clock talked just like it had the day before, which just did not seem to fit the situation.

I though the story would have a happy ending or a sinister one, but it kind of left me hanging for what will come next.

I thought it was unexpected to me because I would of thought that everything would be destroyed not all but one wall and a  voice

Something ironic is that the house burned down. That is ironic because the house was just doing it's normal thing and you wouldn't expect for it to burn down but it did and that's ironic.

I think that the end of the story it is ironic and unexpected because the beginning of the story started almost the same as the end. For example the voice clock started to say "Nine-five" on line 120. Also the stove started to make breakfast on lines 203-206.

One thing that I thought was ironic was that the house burned down from the fire. I believe that this is ironic because I thought at first that the house was going to be the only one untouched. The house was working perfectly and was making food, cleaning and doing the things it would have done if the people were there. This is why the house burning down was ironic to me.

That only one wall is still standing and that it is the one that has the speaker on it.

The story is started off by the voice clock and telling the time and date and such, and it is ended with the voice clock telling the time and date, which makes the ending ironic.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that the part where is repeats the date is ironic because it was saying that in the beginning of the story and the end.  Also the fact that it keeps saying it even when no one is their to hear it.

Something ironic that happened to the house was when it burned down from a fire. At the beginning of the story, the house was cleaning and cooking for itself. The house continued on its day being remembered by the voice clock. This was ironic because it had already survived the nuclear disaster and we had expected it to survive the fire as well. After the fire had burned down, the voice clock said "Today is August 5, 2026, today is August 5, 2026, today is..." so even though the house burned down the voice clock continued to remind what the date was.

# data[].attributes.body
The ending is ironic because the whole house just completely died that you learned a lot about in the story except for one voice and the ironic part is it didn't even seem to know or care what just happened and then said what date it was and repeated it like at the beginning of the story.

Something that was ironic about the way that the story "There Will Come Soft Rains" ended is how the Voice clock said the date multiple times just like the beginning of the story. This is ironic because its like the beginning happening at the end. That is one way that the end was ironic. A second reason the end was ironic was because the Voice clock was talking to nothing just like the beginning. That is why the ending of the story was ironic.

One of the thing that was unexpected was that the house burnt down. This is unexpected because the house survived a nuclear disaster so you would think it would survive a fire.

I think something that is ironic is that the house burned down {died}. This was ironic because at the beginning of the story, the house survived the nuclear disaster which was way more intense than the fire so, you wouldn't think that the house would burn down after the "war".

# data[].attributes.body
The main character (The voice clock) is the only one to survive. And the voice clock isn't mentioned for 133 lines.

# data[].attributes.body
what was ironic about the way the story ends is that the house just dies. Even though it was not alive the voices died the fired just burned everything except one wall. That wall just kept saying the date over and over i thought the way just one wall stood and that it just said the date not anything else at all!

# data[].attributes.body
I think something that is ironic is that the house was still speaking saying "Today is August 5, 2026, today is August 5, 2026, today is..." over and over even after the house was destroyed.  There was no one to hear what the house said because the entire town was dead.

# data[].attributes.body
I think somethings that"s ironic is that the house burned down and there is no more houses because that was the last house. But in the end the house is still repeating the date over and over again.

I think something ironic about the house was that it burned down from a fire. This is ironic because i was thinking that the house was the only house that is going to stay untouched. It was working fine and working making breakfast and cleaning. I would have never thought that the house would have burned down i thought it would be the last house standing not burn down.

Something that's ironic that happened was that the house burned down to a pile of rubble. This was unexpected because earlier in the story the house survived a nuclear disaster which seems worst than a fire so, you wouldn't expect the house to burn down. Also, at the end the house started to repeat the date even though it was "dead".

# data[].attributes.body
In the beginning of the story, the house was telling the date and time, the house also said the date and time at the end of the story. It said "ticktock, seven o'clock, time to get up, seven o'clock..." the clock reminded the empty house what time it was, in the beginning. Later on in the story the clock sang "today is august 5, 2026, today is august 5, 2026, today is..." The clock was still reminding the empty old house that was burned down, the date.

I think something that is ironic is that the house is dead and is all broken down and the radio says that its is August 5 2026 over and over again. I think that that day was the day when this event happened and was a very bad day and the August 5 2026 was the day the house laid dead and the whole city now was no more and no one knew anything about it now since it was dead.
