Inigo Montoya: You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means. I resubmit my definition, which I think does more justice to the way the word is used here than any other. Irony (noun) Saying what you really mean, and which you know to be true, while pretending that it's not true, and that you mean the opposite. Synonym: having no balls.
