This is officially my first post in a long while.

In 1995 a young, seemingly troubled recording artist named Alanis Morissette came up with a single, that enjoyed a great deal of airplay, called Ironic. The song went on to be a hit despite the fact that it talked about nothing ironic. Listen and see if it would solicit the same reaction I had when I turned old enough to dissect and interpret poetry:
Alanis: An old man turned ninety-eight
He won the lottery and died the next day...
Isn't it ironic?
Me: That's not ironic, that's coincidental.
(more on this later)
