I Wrote The First Line… But I Ain’t No Quitter

There once was a form called the FAFSA

Which asked for my tax info. Laughs, ya?

Then my wife had to say

That yes, I did pay,

All to get zero money. That’s a gaffe-sa!

Technology? Up! Art? Ummmm… I’m Probably Not Qualified To Judge, But…

A lot of people are amazed

How in one hundred years

We went from riding horses

To the moon and diet beers.

What I find less impressive

Is that in that same epoch

We went from the Statue of David

To “Is this bedazzled pineapple a joke?”

That Guy In Front Of You’s Philosophy

Red light? Stop!

Green light? Go!

Yellow light? Apparently

That one means “drive real slow”.

Shoulda Sat?

Lonely toilet, late at night.

I don’t need no stinkin’ light.

Wait? Why don’t I hear a splash?

Oops! Guess that bowl was the trash.

Crossfit

There once was a marketing guy

Who was looking for what you should buy.

There was a gym with some rope

And he said “It’d be dope

“If we whip those around. Don’t ask why.”

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.”

Fun Ideas For Improving The World #682

I think we need a theme park

Called IQ Test Land

Where every ride is deadly

(Intentionally planned)

And a prize will be given

To the one lucky guest

Who survives on the rides

Longer than all the rest.

It’s not a solution

Without any flaws

And may be against

International laws

But in the week that its open

The world will be cleared

Of many a person

Who think seat belts are weird.

*#%^ing Algorithms…

A long time ago

When iPods were new

There was a cool button

And what it would do

Is shuffle your music

So your tunes would play

In a randomized order

And people said “Hey

“This feature is awesome

“But it doesn’t quite do

“What the ‘shuffle’ descriptor

“Implies you want to.”

Now twenty years later

A CEO said

“Nah, it’s still good enough”

And then went off to bed.

Guess What Part Of The Movie I Wrote This During?

What if we had a recognizable person

Talk over some muzak

About a mega corporation

About which they’re unenthusiastic

And we’ll have an inoffensive joke

Where a dad does something silly?

That’ll make people desire

To pay us willy-nilly!

And Yet Businesses Still Do This… (Not The Kidnapping Part Though… Yet)

So a friend of mine got kidnapped

And they sent a ransom link.

It said “click here to see the ransom price”.

I’ll never see him again, I think.
