Share moments of irony or cognitive dissonance here!
Here's one to get you started. Satan-metal band Gorgoroth, hailing out of Norway or Sweden or somewhere up there, took its name from a region of land in Mordor, located within J.R.R. Tolkien's Middle-earth.

All their stories of sheep abuse aside, how dark and nefarious can you really be if you take your name out of The Lord of the Rings?!? I mean, seriously.

1. When my repub friends told me about their daughter-in-law's abortion.
They were sad, but relieved.

Complicated story, but the young couple learned early in her pregnancy that the fetus was severely chemically damaged, would probably die in utero, and absolutely would not survive more than a few minutes after birth.

I didn't say anything, but I thought "Thank the hated Democrats that she had that right. at least so far."
Irony of all ironies.
