    I’ve found that one of the more reliable ways to activate the local pedant population in any given situation is to quote lyrics from the 1996 Alanis Morissette song “Ironic”. It’s like rain, on your wedding day!

      A song about irony full of examples where none of them are irony is pretty ironic. It’s a real case of “task failed successfully”.
