Hilarious photos show the real meaning of irony - but we're not sure Alanis Morrisette would approve

Ironic Signage
This pan really is ironic

It's 20 years since singer Alanis Morrisette got the world wondering what is - and isn’t – ironic.

Critics of her iconic hit insisted that “rain on your wedding day”, “a black fly in your Chardonnay” and “a free ride when you’ve already paid” were all very irritating.... but not, actually, “ironic”.

So two decades on website sadanduseless.com is demonstrating the real meaning of the oft-misused figure of speech through a series of hilarious pictures.

Ironic
The absolute meaning of irony
Ironic
Funny - but true
Ironic
And here's another literal meaning

Like a beaver tucking into a “no feeding” notice board, a label welded to a non-stick frying pan and a paving slab engraved with the motto “Nothing is written in stone.”

And a man reading a book on fasting who got snapped while stuffing his face.

Who would’ve thought? It figures.

Ironic
Genuinely ironic
