Ah, irony. No one is actually sure what it means, but it can certainly get you over.

Crucially, it can serve as an excuse to reference something that happens to be looming in the pop culture consciousness, turning the lame and annoying into audience-fluffing gold.

The New Day and the Fashion Police (yes, repeat offenders on this list) have both mastered the ironic use of dumb fads. Yes, it’s ‘ironic’ when they talk about romphims and fidget spinners, just like it was ‘ironic’ when they invited their opponents to cash them ousside, how bow dah.

But they still did it, and it still worked, and the WWE still made money out of the things idiot pre-teens are shouting into the mobile phones.
