When You Have To Finish All The Christmas Candy Before Your Resolutions Start

Not quite next year yet…

Losing weight is easier

When you start out fat…

Timmy Quits First Grade

Kids think school is really neat.

It’s all the crayons you can eat

And lots of friends to boss around

‘Til you weigh more than fifty pounds.

After that school isn’t great.

You’re teased for all the crayons you ate

By bigger kids with smaller brains

And many fewer choochoo trains.

If school stuck to its “pre” version

It would enhance student immersion.

Alas, they think we have to learn

And that’s why I will not return.

The Redneck Reindeer

‘Twas the night after Christmas

And all through the crick

All the rednecks were calling

Old Francis a dick

‘Cause of all of the nights

To go hunting for deer

These nights are the very worst

Parts of the year.

He must’ve been drinking.

Why else would he look

For deer in the sky

And take the shot that he took?

Now all of the kiddies

Have stockings of air

‘Cause old Francis’s shotgun

Had pellets to spare.

But the crick kids were thankful

As they took a big bite

Of smoked red-nosed venison

On post-Christmas night.

We All Know Someone Who Deserves This Gift Though

If you get a hippopotamus for Christmas

‘Cause only a hippopotamus will do

I won’t get a gift for you next Christmas

‘Cause you’ll just be hippopotamus poo.

Starting The Resolutions Early

‘Twas the night before Christmas

And wouldn’t you know it,

Eight lines of verse

From your favorite poet!

Though the wording was brief

The message was clear:

I’m sleepy right now

But I’ll do better next year.

Let’s Eat Flesh vs. Let’s Eat, Flesh?

Zombie killing spree

And a zombie-killing spree

Are not the same thing.

Keepy-Uppy Should Be An Olympic Sport

Make up fancy sports

With eight-hundred page rule books?

Nah. Play “don’t drop ball”.

Ode To Government Transparency

There once was REDACTED from REDACTED

Who REDACTED REDACTED REDACTED.

On REDACTED he said,

REDACTED in bed”

And REDACTED REDACTED REDACTED

Young Introvert’s Reality Check

People really go

Spend time talking to strangers

Without deadly threats?

Tube Go Whoosh!

I got a cool sword for Christmas

But the idiot at the store

Wrapped it in 100 feet of wrapping paper

And I cannot fathom what for.
