An Accurate Portrayal Of Tension Is Limited By The Medium Of Expression

I’m on bad wifi

Trying to publish a post

But I think it might…

The Masculine Dilemma

I could pay money every month

To have access to a gym

Where I lift heavy objects

To feel pain within my limb

And when the lifting’s over

I can climb or bike or run

On a machine that makes it possible

To never feel done

Then I can take my clothes off

In a public locker room

And eat vegetables for breakfast…

Or I can stay home and play Doom.

I May Not Have Love, But My Mattress Full Of Money Keeps Me Warm At Night

If you’re having trouble with a breakup,

Feeling glum, and lacking sex

Just remember Elon Musk bought Twitter,

Flipped the bird, and called it his “X”.

…And The Young Female Offspring Is Called A Doelet

You remember that one guy in high school

Who really, REALLY, loved to talk

About how chinchillas reproduce

And the unpublished music of Bach

And no matter how incorrect he was

Or how bored you happened to be?

That guy is every political discussion

In 2023.

Ye Olde Thug Lyfe

If I were a rapper I’d write some sick rhymes

About crimes and hard times and increasingly warm climes

But instead I’m a blogger and I’m writing these verses

Without curses so my readers won’t go out and steal purses.

Instead of glorifying living as a thug out on the street

I’m all for the institution’s safe and sanctioned meet-and-greet

And if you thinkin’ I’m a sellout I’ll correct you: If you think

Anything I’ve written here‘s worth paying for… go get a shrink.

Greenbacks aren’t a flowing to this blogger’s cargo pockets

Like they do for Tommy Cruise or to that baller Tyler Lockett’s

But I’m rewarded with a gift that no celebrity gets:

I can wear sweat pants to Costco and no one gives two shits!

Dwayne “Dwayne The Rock Johnson” Johnson

There once was a smoldering man

Who was muscular and quite tan.

He lost all his hair

But did not seem to care

And is basically new Jackie Chan.

All I Need Is A $250-Million Government Grant

I want to start a charity

Where blind and deaf people come

And I describe to them how food tastes

‘Cause I’m hungry and I’m dumb.

Also, We Had To Use The Pythagorean Theorem To Calculate Burrowing Speed, So We Are Nerdier Than Thee

We stayed up late

Playing D&D.

Yay for my players

But woe for readers (aka thee).

How About A Good Humbling?

I sorta hope the next disease

That brings the whole world to its knees

Can break the part of DNA’s lock

That makes “important” people talk.

Maybe Poverty Is Good?

A week ago five billionaires

Paid half a million each

To sink into the ocean

To within Titanic‘s reach.

Today, a billionaire put up

For sale a chance to fly

Into space, which makes my face

Nonverbally scream “Why?”
