Know Your Niche

I read a study recently

Where folks read poetry

Written both by poets

And impostor GPTs.

The funny part is readers

Rated all the AI stuff

Better in every category

Than the real poets’ fluff.

The only metric humans

Could equal AI at

Was the “originality” category.

Can you imagine that?

So, yes, robots are winning

But I’ll peacefully nap

Knowing I still have a stranglehold

On writing strictly crap.

New Game?

We’ve reached the point in Monopoly

Where all the property’s gone

And one rich guy is making

Everybody else a pawn

So why are we surprised

When the thimbles of the world

Decide it’s time the tables flipped

And wads of cash get hurled?

Last Season’s Alcohol: Corona… This Season’s Alcohol: Fireball

To all of you who laughed at me

When I said “Dragons are real”

I present you: California.

Now how do you feel?

Elegy For A D&D Session

Here lies our session,

Cancelled last minute

Because someone had finals.

That’s terrible, innit?

But why don’t you pick up

And play without one?

They’re sure to catch up

And the rest can have fun!

Well, “the rest” had a hard week

And one’s on vacation

And one’s had to work

‘Cause of some situation

And one’s having car trouble.

And got her hair done

So no game, but I’ve got

A whole pizza for one.

Know Any Urologists Hiring A Marketing Expert?

If your Weiner is white

Or your Weiner is black

You’ll be alright.

I’ll cut you some slack;

If your Weiner is red

Or your Weiner is yellow

You might have a problem.

But I know a fellow!

Smoothies

Whenever I start hating humans

I remember that someone created

A cup that spins knives in the bottom

That cut food as its electrically gyrated

And it makes a smooth mixture of flavors

From fruits, sugar, protein, et cetera.

Sure, some people still put veggies in

But it still makes you feel better, huh?

I’m Doing My Part

With the recent rise of terrorism

And assassination attempts, please

Remember it was Robert Selander (Mastercard CEO)

Who invented “Convenience Fees”.

Help Wanted: Male Model – Experience Required: 5+ Years Of Being Female

In the near future, diversity quotas

Will become even harder to fill

So job interviewers will have to start meetings

With, “Hey, so I see you are Bill

“But if you’ll let us call you Simone during work

“And you’ll say that your pronouns are ‘they’

“Then we’re happy to call you our newest employee.

“Otherwise, have a very nice day.”

When You Have A Questionable Job And Media-Literate Coworkers

Today I went back to work

And I had an amazing day

That was absolutely fantastic

In every single way!

I got paid well and my colleagues

Are fine, upstanding folks

And I’m sharing this with you

So I don’t get fired for writing jokes.

Portmanteau-tally Wonderful!

My wife is ultradorable

And superfect as well.

I think she’s megawesome

And my only fear is she’ll

Come home with a horse one day

That she was drunkenjoying

Because, although she’s gigamazing,

She can be equestriannoying.
