Here we should Chronicle stories that are just too stupid to even make up. Real life has gotten so absurd that even the Onion and the Beacon writers are challenged to write satire.

So post them here.
 
Follow along here, as there are multiple layers of irony at play; On July 8th, country band Lady Antebellum changed there name to simply Lady A to capitulate to the rioting BLM woke cancel culture mob. Turns out a Seattle based blues and soul singer has been going by the name Lady A for 20 years. So now the country Lady A is suing the soul Lady A over the name. The original Lady A, whose real name is Anita White, is black.

That’s right, the white band who placated to the mob in the name of racial justice is now suing a black woman over the stage name the black woman had first.
 
This one is minor, but still. Took my daughter to a doctor appointment this morning. This is a verbatim conversation.

Me: Good morning. Kate Arrington checking in.
Receptionist: Good morning. Name?
Me: Kate Arrington.
R: First name?
Me: Um, Kate? Last name Arrington.
R: Oh, right. What's the last name?
Me: (Starting to free punked) Uh, ARRINGTON. A-R-R-I-N-G-T-O-N
R: I don't see your appointment, just one for Kate Arrington
Me: (Definitely feeling punked). That's what I said.
R: Oh, I thought you said Matthew. Have a seat.
Me: .....speechless....

This sounds like a Laurel and Hardy skit...
