a) An urban corporate executive (Andrew) discussing his car, "My love of the moment is a 1969 modded-up Holden Ute, Beryl-She is awesome!!!"
b) "Bogan" and "Kath and Kim" parties that take place in post-codes such as "3142"
c) The Working Dog's production of (The Australian version) of "Kath and Kim" was a piss-take and celebration of Boganism, but most Working Dog production members and writers would not be classifiable "bogans". Hence, they created a show with some foundations in ironic boganism.

Irronic (adjective) describes a humorous or unfortunate event that is not unexpected, and may be exactly what you would expect, based on prior knowledge.
This differs from irony in that the event is not incongruent with prior expectations; rather, irrony comes from the coincidental relationship between the event and some piece of prior knowledge.
Pronounced like "irrelevant", or "irrefutable".
This word also helps to stem the definition creep of the word "irony", and also prevents assholes from complaining about its modern day usages.

Get the Ironic mug.Publishing an incorrect example of "ironic" on urban dictionary. For example" "rain on your wedding day" is not ironic. That is unfortunate. It would be ironic if you were a weatherman who predicted sunshine on your wedding day. But, that would be tough to sell as a lyric.
