    There's a page that goes line by line through the lyrics and explains why they are not examples of irony:

    The True Irony of Alanis Morissette

    Alanis Morissette sings a song titled "Ironic" on her album Jagged Little Pill. In this song she offers vignettes of situations where life is going well and then suddenly takes a turn for the worse. She exclaims, "Isn't it ironic...don't you think?" My answer: "No!" I have critically analyzed her lyrics and have found only 1 ironic episode therein. Ultimately I have discovered that she has no clue as to what irony really is.

    That song always bothered me and I found this site really comforting that it bothered someone else enough to take the trouble to dissect it for everyone.

    ...or maybe not -- We'd have to check with Alanis on this one.

    Anyway, thought it was funny/interesting that this comment is right under the banner ad which happened to be for Intel's compiler.

    Targeting this? Compile with this!

    Like rain on your wedding day?

    Rain on one's wedding day has nothing to do with irony, and neither have most stanzas in Alanis Morissette's song. Check this out.

    The deep irony of the situation is that I don't even know what irony is.

    Apparently, she doesn't either. Isn't it ironic... don't you think?

    >you have to appreciate the irony

    Quick, someone tell Alanis Morissette! ;-)
