Ironicon

A person or persons, event or object that becomes famous purely because they are so awful. The kind of celebrity, iconic status that comes from the whole world laughing at, not with someone or something.

Have you seen the angry redhead kid videos? He just might be the biggest ironicon of the month.

ironicool

The level of coolness achieved by embracing an object or attitude that is deemed uncool or outdated by the masses. Striking the ironicool balance is a delicate proposition. Going overboard is quite common and frequently attempts at ironicool lead to failure when they appear to be forced or exhibit over-effort.

Not to be confused with hipsterism.

Check out that guy's "wolf howling at the moon" t-shirt. That things is crazy ironicool!

When did everyone start wearing boat shoes? I remember when they were ironicool.

Toe Rag

A toe rag was originally a foot wrapping used, since mediaeval times up until the mid-nineteenth century, to protect the foot from chafing by boots or shoes. As these were, quite literally, rags they weren’t usually washed, and so with use they became very smelly until they were thrown away. Because of the similarity in smell, toe rag also became the name applied to dried, salted cod or other things with a strong, unpleasant, fishy smell. It didn’t take that long before the name was applied to someone who was an obnoxious, unpleasant OIC.

1 “Socks! Those aren’t socks you smelly git, they’re toe rags!”
2 “What have you been cooking? Smells like toe rag!”
3 “I can smell ‘er fanny from ‘ere, proper toe rag.”
4 That Heale Malcolm is a right toe rag.
