Ironic, Isn't It?

Wow. I have one question to address. Why do people feel so compelled to point out irony? Seriously, is it necessary? When people point out irony they have this look of overwhelming confidence on their face as if they conquered the world. Well congratulations! You showed them! Shoving the fact that someone's statement is ironic in that person's face is plain stupid. I noticed that sometimes whoever points out certain irony, is one who has nothing else to say or contribute to the conversation. By that, I mean, that is all they say. "That's ironic." or "Ironic, isn't it?" At times, I feel just as compelled to say something as dumb as they did such as, "Your face is ironic." That'll show them, just as much as pointing out the irony.
Ironic? No. Sarcastic? No. Coincidence? No. Sheer stupidity? Yes.

Before I go any further, I feel the need to give a definition of the word irony. According to "The Merriam-Webster Dictionary" irony is defined as follows:
Irony-n- The use of words to express something other than and especially the opposite of the literal meaning.
Learn it!

If people follow this concise definition of irony, they would not exacerbate their stupidity by pointing out sarcasm when it is clearly a situation of irony.*

*Yes, I realize that it is ironic that I am promoting someone to point out irony instead of pointing out what they think is irony.

What I love about people pointing out irony is when they point it out, they mistake the supposed irony for pure coincidence or even sarcasm. Believe it or not, this still happens. All I can do is shake my head "no" and leave it because clearly, this new "thing" of pointing out irony won't end. I didn't know it was damn near possible to confuse irony with sarcasm. That's what I like to call, over analyzation. Just don't look into the situation too close with your nose pressed up against it, like a kid looking through the glass of a candy store.

I must be crazy that I'm annoyed by this but, my whole spiel in short is to not point out irony. It's aggravating and can make you look desperate for attention.
