Has anyone here ever heard of the adjective “Alanic?”

http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=alanic

Something that one might mistake for irony, but is actually not. Typically, a predictable worst-case scenario come to fruition. Named after Alanis Morrissette, who's [sic] song “Ironic” uses examples of “irony” that are not ironic — e.g. rain on your wedding day.
Wow 10,000 spoons and all you need is a knife? That's ironic! No it's not — it's alanic.

I encountered the term in this article:

I like this term because I blame that song for a lot of confusion that people seem to have about the concept of irony.
