Post-ironic lad

A reaction to 'lad' culture, the post-ironic lad (also known as the post-lad) is a parody of the stereotypical English lad. To this end post-ironic lads still partake in activities such as hanging around in packs, drinking heavily, watching soccer and attempting to kill each other afterwards as well as enjoying pictures of bare naked women while singing inane and tuneless songs all too loudly, the difference being that they do so ironically.

On first inspection it may seem that there is no difference between the lad and the post-ironic lad, however on closer inspection it becomes clear that post-ironic lad banter is generally more witty than lad banter and in the pursuit of greater irony is often more extreme. Additionally the average post-ironic lad is generally younger than the average lad and most importantly treats the 'lash' as a true way of life.
Post-ironic lad - "If you aren't drunk in 5 seconds, I'm going to punch in the face!"

Post-ironic lad No.1 - "Hey lad, smash up that wardrobe there with the shovel" Post-ironic lad No.2 then proceeds to smash a wardrobe to pieces with a shovel 'ironically'.

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.

ironic dancing

That moment when you're out clubbing and the music is so unbearable that you eventually decide to dance in the most idiotic way possible as a means of protest.
Hey dude, I really hate this music, maybe we should check out some other clubs...
- No way, man! This music is so bad, I just want to own the dance floor to show the dj that nothing can stop our dancing fever!
Yeah, you're right! This feels like an excellent time for some ironic dancing!

ironic mustache

generally adorned by a hipster
an ugly mustache grown initially as a joke and to impress one's friends with the level of commitment necessary to maintain it. these mustaches often remain with the wearer far longer than they are funny and become a part of the person's "look".
Jameson: Dude...Steve looks pretty gross these days. I don't think he's washed his denim jacket in a long time and his hair is awful!
Marc: No doubt, and his ironic mustache really isn't helping.

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!

ironic

An unexpected result, often the opposite of what was expected to happen.
Isn't it ironic that ISIS is attacking France with weapons Made in France but sold to Syria.
People posting things with #PrayForParis, while their government earnt the money to provide for internet by selling weapons to ISIS, is quite ironic.
