The Lady or Lord Chief Justice is generally referred to by the initials, LCJ or is simply The Chief (but not in Court)

The male chief justices have always for hundreds of years been referred to as Lord Chief Justice. Lady Carr is our First Lady Chief. The role makes post holder a member of the House of Lords (our upper house of Parliament) where all the occupants are referred to as Lords or Ladies

These are funny precisely because we all know we've made these sorts of silly/funny mistakes ourselves. Not the least bit cruel, imo
