i‧ro‧ny  [ahy-ruh-nee, ahy-er-]

Defined: an outcome of events contrary to what was, or might have been, expected (and also) the incongruity of this.

I have defined this for Shelly. It’s one of her Ross-isms. She’s really into language and it visibly upsets her when people mis-use the word irony.

So fitting, then, that while Shelly and both practiced work avoidance this afternoon, we both jointly stumbled on this stellar example of irony.
