Indeed it is.  Sad Irony.

i was thinking about that... it's actually not irony at all.  it's just stupidity.

it's like how the only irony in the alanis morrisette song "ironic" is the fact that it is not ironic at all.  every situation she explains falls under "well, that just sucked".

that's sad irony.  sad irony sucks.  happy irony is the lottery machine putting the wrong numbers on your ticket, but those numbers turn out to be winners.

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the airâ€"these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

Seriously?

Seriously. Here's a quick article you can read, too lazy to find more. Google is your friend. I also personally know a few people who have been seriously injured by passengers who weren't wearing seatbelts hitting them inside the vehicle during a rollover. It happens and isn't uncommon.

Probably not the best article but you get the idea.

Alanis Morrisette didn't understand the concept of irony when she wrote the song "Ironic", which, in itself, is ironic.  The biker's death is in deed a sad sad irony...

And as the plane crashed down he thought
"Well isn't this nice..."
