My friend Abbey used it correctly when saying that smart phones are dumb and that is ironic. Yes it IS ironic because smart phones are supposed to be smart. The popular song entitled Ironic by Alanis Morisette is ironic because you would think it's about Irony but it's actually about sad things that happen that aren't ironic at all.
For example, the lyrics:
An old man turned ninety-eight
He won the lottery and died the next dayaren't ironic at all... that's just sad. But the entire awful song is like that. You can go through it and count all of the sucky things that happen but none of them are actually ironic and Alanis Morisette is a moron.
