Is there a word for this?

I keep forgetting to actually post stuff here this semester, for some reason. XD

But yeah, as for the topic... when you publicly ask a question related to a person without actually mentioning their name, and that exact person (unaware that they are, in fact, the same one you're talking about) actually answers... is there a word for that? Would it be irony, or something else?

In completely unrelated news, some random stuff has happened lately.  I had a crappy day that was at least partially caused by not getting a haircut, a long chain of coincidences (a couple of the later ones involving me) lead to someone's missing student ID card being returned to them almost as soon as they realized it was gone, and I went to the first actual singer/band-type concert I've ever been to.  It was here at school, and the singer was Mindy Gledhill, who I had never heard of before this week.  I'm not really sure what sort of music it technically was (I don't keep up with the vague and nonsensical names of music genres, so if something doesn't really fit into "rock," "country," "rap," "jazz," etc... I really don't know where to put it), but it was pretty good, and (at least partially thanks to Ruth letting me sit next to her) I didn't even freak out from the crowding... in fact, I actually bumped into another person who also is bothered by crowds, and another who I'd met once before mentioned that she has a relative who has the exact same sort of problem as me... and a brother who has the exact same community college "150+ transfer credits and three degrees, the last two earned in the same year" situation as me. Weird how that kind of stuff happens.

Also, I had to go to Wal-Mart to buy a knife.

...

...for my drawing class, since we have these weird pencils and need to sharpen them with knives because they won't fit in a pencil sharpener.
