Is there any word in the English language more inherently ironic than "monosyllabic"?

Phonetic, possibly.

I like this one. Hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia IS in fact absurd, however I'm not sure it is ironic. Just wonderfully amusing.
Phonetic, however, might have monosyllabic beat.

Also, this may not be ironic, but it's pretty ridiculous, nonetheless:
hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia - fear of long words.

Damn it, Farrah! I was gonna say 'subtle' is the most apropos.
