Goldreck The Obtuse Didn’t Apply His Social Emotional Learning Outcomes

Today I learned in school

That everyone’s equally cool

So I wore my knickerbocker.

Now I’m cool inside my locker.

On The Devaluation Of Currency And Its Indirect Consequences To Tourism And Related Industries (Or: Time To Invest In Fountains, As The Price Of Wishes Just Went Up 400%)

I sing of a coin called a penny

Whose value was just less than “any”.

It was cash, free and legal, and yet it

Was not worth the effort to get it.

If it’s true what the president hinted

No longer will such coins be minted

And I for one ponder this pickle:

Will folks still pay for a souvenir nickel?

Qatar Is Just Protecting Their Spanish Friends From Flooding

So Trump accepted a gifted plane

Worth half a billion dollars

Which prompted a lot of random folks

To become morning radio callers.

But with regards to blame

And deciding on whom to pin it

You should know the rain in Spain

Is apparently mainly in it.

East Vs. West — Tea Edition

When you sit down in America

To have a cup of tea

You pull out your fine china

As if you aren’t the bourgeoisie.

Meanwhile, In China

Do they grab a fancy gun

And call it “fine america”?

‘Cause that’s sounds way more fun!

Just 51 More Years To Effective Governance

Little do we know that Mr. Beast

Has been filming a new video

That he started in 1776

And here’s how it will go:

“I locked every good politician

“In a cage for 300 years

“And if they stay the whole time

“They’ll be recognized by their peers.”

And For Seven Days We Had 2005 Again…

“Revenge of the Sith” is the best-selling movie.

“Oblivion” is the most popular game

And I just hope the rest of this year

Keeps this week’s agenda the same.

It’s Working, Comrades!

I heard that Disney has discovered

A group of Russian bots

Has left many “Snow White” reviews

All filled with toxic thoughts.

I’m truly flabbergasted

That AI has come so far

As to accurately review a film

That deserves that single star.

Bille Nye The Science Guy 3, Starring Chris Rock

We’ve finally reached the place

Where Hollywood’s gotten so mid

Black actors are turning down starring roles

And bringing milk home for their kid.

Discipline Solution Or Future Skynet? You Decide

Some people are scared of robots

But I think we should put them in school

Because people would grow up with them

And think they’re really cool

And if a not-a-robot kid

Would give the teachers sass

It’d be just fine to get them in line

By kicking a robot’s ass.

Six Seasons And A Movie…

I’m not a huge fan of reality shows

But one that I think would impress

Is a battle-royale style contest between

All 535 folks in congress.

We’d give them katanas and send them away

To a place that’s devoid and bereft

And let them do anything they want to do

Until there’s just one of them left.

The final survivor gets to be president

And the senate and house get refilled

By neighbors and bosses and IRS workers

And anyone else we want killed.
