Why ironic? I missed something

I agree- many people come here that don’t know the difference between insects and arachnids just by looking at them. Good answer!

[The Snark]

Used to refer to someone or something that is difficult to track down.
I was initially given the nickname the Snark due to my penchant for ditching school and sometimes not turning back up for days.
My brother DD: "We finally get to meet the snark of the school and mom's bête noire." Our mom being my school counselor.
He had softly and suddenly vanished away—
For the Snark was a Boojum, you see.


“If—and the thing is wildly possible—the charge of
writing nonsense were ever brought against the author of this brief but
instructive poem, it would be based, I feel convinced, on the line (in p. 16)
Then the bowsprit got mixed with the rudder sometimes: In view of this
painful possibility, I will not (as I might) appeal indignantly to my other
writings as proof that I am incapable of such a deed: I will not (as I might)
point to the strong moral purpose of this poem itself, to the arithmetical
principles so cautiously inculcated in it, or to its noble teachings in Natural
History—I will take the more prosaic course of simple explaining how it
happened.” -Lewis Carroll explaining the Snark.

And some of you, dear friends, have become Snark hunters.
