Ironic

A word one uses in service of doing something one likes but is afraid others will think isn’t cool, to cover oneself and seem cool doing it. (Bears no actual relationship to either the traditional meaning or whatever that Alanis Morrisette song was doing)

Sure, Transformers are for 10 year olds, but I’m wearing this shirt ironically.
