Alanis morissette's song ironic contains no solid cases of irony, mostly bad luck or poor timing, and is therefore ironic.

I read an interview with her once that was kind of funny and humanizing. She wrote and recorded that song before she was famous and had no idea that it would ever be heard. Then it blew up and people have been giving her shit about it for decades now.

Could you imagine if you wrote a shitty Lemmy comment that became extremely viral and people were like, "you fucking moron, how could you have written something so dumb?!"
