ironic

1. A situation where the result is a complete reverse (and practical mockery) of what was expected

2. A word heavy misused and abused in conversation today, mostly by people who think that using the word in any way will automatically make them seem intelligent. The word is usually misused to exactly mean "coincidental" or "tragic", when again it doesn't mean this (see #1)
If the heavy metal band Anthrax dies of anthrax, that would be poetically tragic, but not ironic. If a diabetic crosses the street and is run over by a truck carrying insulin, then it's ironic.

"Isn't it ironic that the pop song 'Ironic' contains absolutely no examples of irony?"

"One issue of Mad Magazine showed Alfred E. Neuman face-down in the desert, crushed to death by a parachuted crate of first aid supplies. Now THAT was ironic!"

Iron Chef

if memory serves me right, this a show that can be found on Food Network and The Fine Living Network.

It is known for it's over-the-top drama.

In the original Iron Chef Japanese, Chairman Kaga tries his best to pronounce "allez cuisine" to begin battle, but says what sounds more like "ALAKAZAM!" The producers of the show either never noticed, or found it hilarious and never informed him. (the best episode is the original Foie Gras episode...trust me)


The friendly announcer "Fukui-San" is often called upon by the floor reporter "Ohtah" in a very high pitched, hurried and excited voice sounding more like "SQUEEZE-ON!"


If you watch the show often you'll notice that both the challengers and the Iron Chefs say "I'll do my best" a lot! Also the panel judges will say "WHAAT???!!" and "ooohhhhhhh!" numerous times throughout the show.


during the tasting, the panel will often point out that the food is in their mouths.
"Squeeze-on! If you'll notice, the Iron Chef is now skinning the angler fish!" --Ohtah

"It looks to me like he's making some sort of noodle out of those crab brains." --Fukui-San
"WHHAATTTTT?! NOODLES?!!!" -- female panel member


"ohhh this black truffle, foie-gras, crab brain, fish eyeball stew is just so good in my mouth!" -- panel member

Iron Beef Curtains

This refers to the Vagina of Margaret Thatcher (Former Prime Minister of the UK). The nick name for her flacid genetalia, comes ironically (HA!) from the nick name associated with her stubborness in politics "The Iron Lady".

However the nick name became cemented in the hearts of the public, when a photographer accidentally fell over and took a picture upskirt revealing her vagina to be actually made from 18th century pig iron.

This has opened up a large debate which spans many topics.

Biology - How?
Philosophy - Why?
and Politics - ......

Some have suggested that it was not her vagina at all, but a form of securtiy device to stop unwanted vermin from nesting in there. However regardless, the media splash was enough to concrete in the term Iron Beef Curtains.
I would like to be the first, then, to suggest, that instead of wasting, millions of pounds of taxpayers money on her state funeral. We should instead, recycle her Iron Beef Curtains.

Iron maiden

One of the greatest metal bands of all time, and definately the greatest that came out of England. Only drunks, druggies and lesser morons disagree with the scientific fact that Maiden rock with the soul of the 80's.

iron lotus

A controversial, very difficult figure skating move performed by pairs. One partner holds the other's legs around his/her neck and swings them around like a giant swing. The thrower lets go and allows the partner to do a huge flip in mid-air which turns them upside down. The thrower must then do a 360 body spin like a buzzsaw and avoid cutting the partner's head off.

The only successful attempt in professional pairs figure skating was by Chazz Michael Michaels and Jimmy MacElroy.

Yes.. by 2 men and only after Chaz broke his ankle from a pearl thrown by one of the Van Walderbergs and with MacElroy serving as the thrower.
"The Iron Lotus was so controversial it was only performed in North Korea. Kim Jong-Il had the pair attempt it in front of a large army and audience only to see the pair fail. The partner cut off the thrown partner's head with his skate when he performed his spin. He then picked the head up and wept."

"My ankle is broken, I'm going to need you to throw me instead for the Iron Lotus."
