Yup. John was right. The date on your Chromebook is Sun Aug 16 11:22:22 CEST 2161

Looking to your log, I found the first problem (I read thread after I found auditd log portion and decipher the time):

[ 2.489343] audit: type=1400 audit(6047083342.480:2): apparmor="STATUS" operation="profile_load" profile="unconfined" name="/sbin/dhclient" pid=489 comm="apparmor_parser"

Just do the CLI command: date -d @6047083342.488 and you'll see.

By that time (Y2161) I'll look something like this (200Y old man): https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/originals/b1/c9/8f/b1c98fb01833bdbd06513a3ffc8f6590.jpg

There are other problems (as well) in your dmesg log. But not to spoil the situation (KUDOS to John). If you find anything else wrong, just scream! ;-)
