There is actually a story behind every line in that song that makes it ironic. For example, the "it's like rain on your wedding day" is because Alanis wrote that line about her friend, who married a weather man, and it actually did rain.

which one of her friends collects spoons?

It's not ironic, unless her weatherman husband predicted sun that day.
