ironically named open society 

"open" society is a nefarious project funded by spooky dude george soros to strip people of their ability to exercise their God given liberty.

The 'open' bit is the irony. Direct democracy only seems brilliant to the poorly educated. One needs a democratic republic and not a direct democracy to live well -- provided one's elected representatives are honorable, educated, and active in their respective faith.
You though the chairman was bad wait until you find yourself living under the ironically named open society.

ironical 

Comically antiquated variation on 'ironic' presently used most often to emphasise the unseriousness of a point. 'Ironical', like many nouns accepting the -ical adjectival suffix (e.g., poetical, hermetical, etc.) fell into disuse in favour of the shorter -ic form (e.g., poetic, hermetic, etc.) in Early Modern English. The anachronistic 'ironical' is therefore most commonly used in current speech to suggest the absurdity of an expression.
Speaker 1: That...that doesn't make much sense.
Speaker 2: Yes, one might even suspect, for example, that I was being ironical!

ironically bored 

When you now have so much time on your hands that you don't know what to do. The irony being that when you did have stuff to do you were meant to be doing something else.
watching stupid videos on youtube when you were meant to be revising for an exam. Now the exam is over watching videos does not seem that entertaining, and nor does anything else for that matter, making you ironically bored.
