Irony for Irony's Sake

Is dead, evidently. Or so the intarweb tells me. It says that spouting or writing something ironic for the sake of being ironic is so 90s.

And I suppose it is - cynicism is passe, unless you really mean it. So listen up, all you poseurs. Knock it off.

TheWikipedia entry for irony got too deep for me after a minute.

I've decided to quit thinking about this now...it's making my brain hurt.
