an irony of hipsters

A collective noun referring to three or more overtly trendy yet alternative millennials, or hipsters, meeting or traveling in a group together. A comparable identifier in the animal kingdom would be a murder of crows or an array of hedgehogs.

The artisan cider brewery and cheese shop was empty until an irony of hipsters came in and took up the tables and couch in the corner.

irony of love

How something so beautiful could end up being destructiveโ€” with how ironic love is, people learned how to cry, and lie.

Love never hurts. But if it does, maybe it isn't even love, or it's just the irony of love acting up.

Person 2: No! Thats crazy!
Person 1: Yeah, and he had just signed a contract with MTV to host a reality show doing interventions for teenagers with drug problems, showing how people can turn their lives around.
Person 2: Wow. Define Irony.
