I Stole This Joke (Like The Second Guy, Probably)

Racism is crazy!

Like if you punch a white guy

You get arrested for assault

And your mama will cry

But if you punch a black guy

In the belly or head

You’re impersonating

A police officer instead.

And If We Refinance, We Might Get To Move Into A Three-Tired Sedan!

I made a big old spreadsheet

To learn about buying a house.

I entered my income and interest rate

And the preferences of my spouse.

I learned a lot about mortgage rates

And discovered that we can afford

A tree with a lightly-used tire swing

And a tarp that’s attached to a board.

*Depends* On Your Perspective

In kindergarten, there was a boy

Who said “You’re dumb and old

“And you’re bald and gross and poopy

“And you do whatever you’re told.”

I turned to face the parents

Whose expressions were most hesitant

And I proudly said, “We’re learning

“About how to describe the president!”

The Only Difference Is One Candidate Was Convicted

There once was a hush-money trial

That went on for quite a while.

The jury used their melon

And decided he’s a felon

But he’ll still win votes with a smile.

The Menace Is No Longer Phantom

In 1999 they released a film

About an old guy that starts a galactic war

Where one side wants free markets

And one side wants big government

But they both serve the same exact dark lord

Now in 2024 we’re given a choice

Between two wrinkly warmongers as well

And I’m going to vote for the one

Who shoots lightning from his thumbs

‘Cause that’s the objectively cooler ruler of Hell.

But They Gave You Two Choices!

Once some Spartans got bored

And one of them grabbed a sword.

They said “We can stab you

“Or instead spear you too”

And thus democracy was restored.

If You Don’t Think This Poem Rhymes, You’re A Racist

We were born in an America

Where if you TP a house

You’re arrested not for vandalism

But for cultural appropriation

Since some white chick heard “teepee”

And her grandmother was 1/8th Cherokee

And African Americans invented toilet paper

So you’re screwed either way.

Privatize Social Credit?

Instead of food or clothing

We should donate cameras

To the homeless and the needy

And the reason is because

A stinky guy with bad hair

With the sign: “I’m live on Twitch”

Will get people to donate more…

At least that’s my pitch!

Sunbathing? Sure…

I thought about the venus flytrap

And how cool are carnivorous plants.

Then I thought about the opposite

And how we might enhance

An animal that ate no meat

And was immobile and sat in the sun.

Turns out there’s an animal like that:

The “Californian”.
