Do you think we can cancel our subscriptions to 2024?
In a stunning event that called the collective national IQ into question, Der Furor was elected once again to the presidency he already spent four years debasing ... to no one's surprise, Russian President Vladimir Putin was quick to congratulate his protege on the victory; police are hunting for 43 monkeys who escaped from a South Carolina research facility after a keeper left their pen open; the Russian parliament’s committee on Family Protection, Paternity, Maternity and Childhood, is studying a petition to establish a "Ministry of Sex" to help remedy the country’s low birth rate and replace men killed in the war in Ukraine; and in England (not Florida, go figure) a pub has been forced to change its name from "The Midget" (after an iconic MG car) to "The Roaring Raindrop" (another historic MG car) after more than 1,000 people signed a petition claiming "midget" was "a form of disablist hate speech ... that should be consigned to the history books."
This week, instead of the usual cartoons, I thought I'd dip into the deep well of memes that have made me chuckle over the past year ...
Anyone else? ...
I know a great many people to whom this applies ...
Good decision ...
This is spot-on ...
If you find this place, send me the contact information right away ...
I need one with a bigger hood and a larger hose ...
It makes you wonder, doesn't it? ...
This is how my journal often reads ...
Indeed ...
This one will be funnier for history buffs like me, but trust me - it's hilarious ...
And a disappointing week swirls down the drain of history to the accompaniment of - I hope - a few chuckles.
Have a good day and a great weekend, and come back tomorrow for Poetry Sunday ... more thoughts then.
