Sarcastic or paradoxical (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ironic

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'sarcastic' is the first definition.
(similar in meaning)

'paradoxical' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)

(Other definitions for ironic that I've seen before include "Describes a statement that says the opposite of what is clearly the case" , "Suggesting the opposite for humorous effect" , "Wry, sarcastic" , "Mockingly humorous" , "Characterised by mildly sardonic wit" .)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Mail.
