Irony

Wow, yeah, conservatives do not understand irony at all do they? Damn. I'm watching the Brett Cooper thing on Blake Lively and I'm like... Does she not see the parallel there? Or does she? Is she my ultimate herald?
Hym "Speaking of Irony and in-group preferential treatment, I just realized that I am a super minority whose only 'friends' have been of the same super minority. Blacknativewhite. And I wonder how much of this is driven by racism... And then I think 'I should own a free tesla... I created A.I. and am the greatest mind who has ever lived... Elon should give me a tesla for free- NOT THE CYBER TRUCK ELON!' He owes me for lying about creating A.I. (Because he knows it was me!) and is a good way to prove that retardation can be rehabilitated."

Irony

1. Life’s way of reminding you that karma has a sense of humor.
2. The gap between what someone means and what they’re accidentally proving.
3. Waving a flag made in China while shouting “America First.”
My fiancés dad sending me a video about “dumb women” was like watching a maga parade where people are waving flags made in China while shouting “America First” — you want to look away, but the irony’s too loud.

irony poisoning

Irony poisoning is when one's worldview/weltshauung/reality tunnel is so dominated by irony and detachment-based-comedy, that the joke becomes real and you start to do things that are immoral or wrong from a place of deep nihilistic cynicism.
"Why would John do this to me?"
"It's irony poisoning, ma'am. Seen it a million times."

irony squared

Irony as an external attribute; beyond the qualities of an implicit component. Irony as a subjectively-applied attribute of an object which ALREADY contains internal ironic components. Irony that falls outside of the bounds of postmodernism. Postmodernists call it post-irony and ascribe it primarily to post-postmodernism; although much of post-irony arcs farther, into hypermodernism. Includes ironic nihilism, ideal ironicism (aesthetic), and ironic identity (racial; collective conciousness). Popular in the alt-right messaging approach

A number of late 90’s postmodern academics considered second-degree existential irony to be a boundary of postmodernism rather than external to postmodernism itself; however this analysis did not take into account the unique attributes of nihilism as compared to existentialism as a whole
Ironic nihilism is an example of irony squared because nihilism itself already contains implicit irony.

Irony poisoned

When someone perceives nearly everything through multiple layers of irony, and nothing through sincerity. This could extend to someone not being able to sincerely express their own beliefs without someone else thinking they’re being ironic or Insincere. And it could also extend to the inability of someone to take sincerity coming from others at face value, or being skeptical of it.
Person 1: I really enjoy X
Person 2: I bet you only like it because it’s secretly a coping mechanism for something else.
Person 1: it’s not, you’re brain is just irony poisoned

Irony Nazi

At the first use of the word irony, they come swooping in to demonstrate their intellectual superiority, without bothering to check whether the usage was correct or not.
"That is not what irony is!!" said the Irony Nazi.
