Furony - What Irony should have been.
The original definition of irony was actually more like sarcasm. But most people use the phrase, erm. meaning Furony.
Even Alanis Morissette (the Canadian singer) commented in an interview about her song featuring the word ironic, that at the time she didn’t know exactly what it meant.
Whilst Fa might not scan as well as Ir when sung, arguably it’s close enough for rock n roll, and certainly more in keeping with the meaning which is meant.
It’s absence in the English dictionary is well erm. you know… (furonic)
