A form of irony that, at a cursory glance, seems to completely miss the definition of irony. Upon further consideration, it occurs to people later that the only thing ironic about it is that there is nothing ironic about it. This, in turn, sets up a conundrum wherein critics are no longer sure whether the original author is either a genius or fucking stupid. Named for Alanis Morisette's song Ironic.
The book was Alanis ironic in that the "ironic" stories the author told were so far off the mark that people had to wonder, given his otherwise sound literary prowess, whether he intentionally used "cosmic irony" to both increase the colloquial understanding of the misuse of ironic and define it in a subtle way, or if he really just doesn't understand irony.

Get the Alanis Ironic mug.A name for a sweet, kind, rude, mean person. She loves to dance and listen to music. People would call her beautiful and cute but that’s not what she thinks of herself.
Why is Atlantis so mean???

Get the Alanis mug.Alanis is the hella happy sometimes but then sad other times type of girl.She is really pretty but thinks she is an ugly peace of shit.When she is sad everyone is concerned.She is a tough and brave girl and has gone through a battle with depression in the past but she tries to ignore it so she can be a better version of herself.One little thing fazes and she lets her emotions out when need be.Bottom line she is a badass even though she doesn’t think so.Other than that she has a big sense of humor and is VERY clumsy.She can be annoying but that’s only to make others smile.She gets embarrassed 😖 all the time.Love a Alanis because they are very special.

Get the atlantis fantastic mug.A lost city that has never been found, but may be located in The Eye of Africa. Atlantis was a city that sunk underwater thousands of years ago. We still don’t know 100% where Atlantis might be, but we will find it eventually.
