I'm sometimes amazed how both Irony and Sarcasm can completely go over some people's heads. Now, I know that I didn't always understand those two but no matter what I try I'm unable to explain it to a few of my friends.

On another note. I actually think that Irony by Alanis Morissette is ironic. It is a song about Irony filled with things that aren't ironic at all. This has to be some sort of (meta)irony.

No, the song is not ironic. Alanis didn't know what the word ironic actually meant, and thought she did. That's just idiocy or ignorance, not irony.
