Twirony (Twitter Irony)....the practice of communicating with a blend of irony and sincerity on social media.
It fails to express clear thoughts and feelings. It is often designed to hurt someone's feelings and belittle/humiliate them. It serves to reduce someone's personal responsibility for what they are saying by dulling the meaning with mock-sincerity.

After he let loose with a barrage of Twirony, I felt a combination of befuddlement, depression and offense, and was no clearer to understanding what he was actually trying to say beyond the most simplistic of notions.
