In the interest of keeping the thread alive, probably best to avoid political posts (though I recognize the vein of irony in current US politics is both deep and rich).
It's ironic my fitness club membership entitles me to a discount at "Buffalo Wild Wings". Because nothing says healthy like deep fried chicken wings.

An old man turned ninety-eight
He won the lottery and died the next day
It's a black fly in your Chardonnay
It's a death row pardon two minutes too late
Isn't it ironic, don't you think
It's like rain on your wedding day
It's a free ride when you've already paid
It's the good advice that you just didn't take
Who would've thought, it figures
Mr. Play It Safe was afraid to fly
He packed his suitcase and kissed his kids good-bye
He waited his whole damn life to take that flight
And as the plane crashed down he thought
"Well, isn't this nice."
And isn't it ironic, l don't you think
It's like rain on your wedding day
It's a free ride when you've already paid
It's the good advice that you just didn't take
Who would've thought, it figures
Well, life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
When you think everything's okay and everything's going right
And life has a funny way of helping you out when
You think everything's gone wrong and everything blows up
In your face
A traffic jam when you're already late
A no-smoking sign on your cigarette break
It's like ten thousand spoons when all you need is a knife
It's meeting the man of my dreams
And then meeting his beautiful wife
And isn't it ironic, don't you think
A little too ironic, and yeah I really do think
It's like rain on your wedding day
It's a free ride when you've already paid
It's the good advice that you just didn't take
Who would've thought, it figures
Well, life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
And life has a funny way of helping you out
Helping you out.

Made a trip to the grocery yesterday for the first time in a week plus. Standing in the long socially-distance-spaced checkout line and the in-store Musak system plays Howard Jones's "Things Can Only Get Better".
That all of these speakeasy joints in NY are now closed.
with all these people staying home and not driving, air pollution has decreased substantially in Paris, in Rome, in the big cities of India, and I assume in lots of places in the US. The government and scientists have been trying to find a solution to the air pollution problem for many years. Now we've found it. Not sure this is irony. Maybe serendipity is a better word for this.
You only need to read the headline to get the big laugh.
