Modern Detox

If you’re in need of a business idea

I have a suggestion for you:

An apartment complex for people who want

To live like 1992.

The rent will be $500 a month

And the internet’s 10 sites or so,

Your neighbors are friendly, their kids play outside,

And Roseanne’s your favorite show.

A black Friday toaster is 25 cents

And so is a Big Mac with fries

And you can get Cracker Jack from Cracker Barrel

And it comes with an actual prize!

Phones have a wire, movies are physical

And they need to be rewound.

Nostalgia is hot. Spending money is not.

Does not this idea seem sound?

The Only Kong Will Be Donkey

Some people want no kings

But I don’t think that’s proper

‘Cause when I feel hungry

I want to eat a Whopper.

I like Californian sports teams

And extra-roomy beds,

Good poker hands and Aragorn

And Starks who are also Neds.

A bunch of schools will have to change

Their mascots. Other things

Will cause unexpected results

If we really have no kings.

We’ve Come A Long Way Since 867-5309

The upside of the “6-7” trend

Is that it may show the unheralded end

Of kids saying “420-69”

Which makes me feel better than fine.

No Change Is Good Change?

Thanks to a heroic protest

With an anti-monarchical request

I’m happy to say

That as of today

No kings have, our freedom, transgressed.

Congressional Privilege

So we can’t pay employees

Who keep on working hard

Despite a shut-down government

With a maxed-out credit card

And yet we pay the people

Who got us in this mess

With money that we do not have?

‘Murica, I guess…

No Really… What’s The Downside?

We finally did it!

We shut down the Feds!

We didn’t use violence

And lop off their heads;

We didn’t act cleverly

Nor were we strategic

We just let them keep spending

‘Til the budget went paraplegic.

The government shutdown

Is the start of new ways

If we can just keep it going

More than 35 days.

High School Science, 2025

Men are from Mars.

Women are from Venus.

Explain in 500 words

Why you should chop off your penis.

They Were Viva-ing La Vida Alright…

There once was a CEO

Who went to a Coldplay show.

The HR-H.O.E.

Said, “Kiss cam? OMG!”

And now the whole world’s in the know.
