Donald Trump Limerick #6
And now the disordered goon
is hell-bent on mining the moon.
The strange new digression
leaves us the impression
that he’s a distractible loon.
If loving pickle loaf is wrong, then I don’t wanna be right.
CAROLINA PRIDE, *****es!
They mocked me once for favoring specialty meats. NOW WHOSE HABITUAL VICE IS CONSISTENTLY STOCKED EVEN IS TIMES OF APOCALYPSE-INDUCED SUPERMARKET SHORTAGES?
TODAY, THE MEAT AISLE. TOMORROW, THE WORLD.
In the not-too-distant future — this country, A.D.
This meme is making the rounds on Facebook. (As always, I’ll cheerfully credit its creator if he or she steps forward.)
Joel and the Bots might just make these televised farces bearable.
Throwback Thursday: Milton Bradley’s Connect Four!
I loved this game. Just about the only drawback to it was that if two kids got reasonably proficient at Connect Four, they would somewhat consistently reach a draw every time they played.
If you glance at the comments section for the video (I’m linking here to panbiscuit’s Youtube channel), you can see that plenty of people still remember the “Pretty sneaky, Sis” line at the end.
Weird world — when I was a little kid in the late 1970’s, I totally had that kid’s haircut.
Hey — you can actually play an online version of Connect Four for free if you’ve got Adobe Flash.

Wash your hands.
Wash your hands.
Wash your hands.
Wash your hands.
Wash your hands.
Wash your hands.
Wash your hands.
Wash your hands.

Another Donald Trump Limerick …
The #Dimericks hashtag has died down a bit on Twitter, but I couldn’t resist just one more limerick at Donald Trump’s expense …
There once was a doltish aggressor
who lied at his pandemic presser.
He figured he’d use
his tried-and-true ruse
of blaming his black predecessor.
