2020 to Be Measured in Dog Years

In an effort to accommodate and adequately chronicle the rapid pace of this year's current events into comprehensible portions, social and political scientists at the Research Studies Institute are recommending that 2020 be measured in “Dog Years” and multiplied into no fewer than seven segments of varying lengths.

“We aren’t yet certain how the additional time will be distributed,” says Dr. Gerald Bostock, Dean of the Institute’s History Department, “But it probably won’t be divvied up evenly as some months, weeks and even days have been more jam-packed than others."

While the names or titles for these new parcels of time haven't been finalized, Bostock acknowledges that "Head-Spinning", "Hair-Raising", "You've Got to be Kidding Me" and "WTF!!!" were all in serious consideration. 

"We don't want to get too far ahead of ourselves," cautions Bostock, gravely, warning that, “We’ve still got four months to go, God help us all.”

 

GOP Declares Moral Bankruptcy, Goes into Receivership

Yo, Semite!

President Trump reads through and comments on list of National Parks

Arcadia  
Is this some kind of "Talk Like a Pirate Day" joke or something?

Aztec Ruins National Monument 
Mexico should really be paying for this.

Cleveland National Forest 
Loser Californians, naming a park for something in Ohio.

Cuyahoga
Indian name for an old-fashioned car horn. Pretty clever.

Daniel Boone National Forest
A great American cowboy hero who fought at the Alamo, invented raccoons, had a hit TV show.

Denali National Park & Preserve
A park? I thought it was a river.

Fort Bowie National Historic Site
Wasn't he British? That’s not even his real name. Not many people know that.

Golden Spike National Historic Site
Is there still any gold there? We should look into that.

Grand Mesa and Great Sand Dunes
What makes one great and one grand? Sounds rigged, so unfair.

Grand Teton National Park
You know what that means, right? Heh, heh, heh.

Great Smoky Mountains
Loser libs would like to change the name to Great Non-Smoking Mountains. I'll add that to my next press conference.

Inyo National Forest
In Yo what? Is this some inner city woodland? California? Figures.

Monongahela National Forest
Who names a forest after a disease?

Mt. Hood
About time my old New York pals got recognition. Who’d they have to bribe? I'd have done it for less.

Ottowa National Forest
Why are we paying for trees in Canadia?

Pu'uhonua O Honaunau
Is that even a real word? This is why we shouldn’t let in new states that aren’t already American.

Rogue River
Named for McCain? I can change that, right? He was a Maverick? Who was the rogue, then? Palin?

Sequoia
Why would I do that?

Tonto National Forest
One of our greatest, most famous native Indians. 

Yellowstone
This is where Yogi Bear lives, right? Is Boo-Boo still alive?

Employees' Song Greeting Visitors Back to Florida Kingdom Alleged to be Magical

Bet your life
Bet your life
Your existence has a price
A smile is all you need here
But a mask is also nice
Start your tour through this door
Uncle Walt’s beneath the floor
The fluorescent bleach’s delicious
Don’t believe me? Ask Trump’s bitches!
They can spin 
Can’t dance, though
Almost close to Mar-A-Lago
No one’s gloomy or complaining
But to breathe we are all straining
We tell jokes
As we choke
While we entertain you folks
For this we went to Julliard?
The job market is really hard
Bet your life
Bet your life
Bet your life!

 

DARWIN AWARDS HALTS 2020 NOMINATIONS, GRANTS ALL HUMANITY A PARTICIPATION TROPHY AND CALLS IT A DAY

GALAPAGOS ISLANDS, EQUADOR (AFA NewsWire) Despite the year 2020 having only just hit the halfway mark, officials of the Darwin Awards have announced they are no longer reviewing nominations, and will hereby cease the judging and awarding process for this year, citing an “Overabundance of candidates” and “Uncertainty that, as a species, mankind deserves to continue inhabiting the planet”. 

Since 1993, the tongue-in-cheek organization has annually saluted the “Improvement of the Human Genome by Honoring Those Who Accidentally Remove Themselves from It In a Spectacular Manner”.

“Naturally, we’d figured on giving the big 2020 prize to U.S. President Donald Trump,” said Darwin Awards spokesman Elijah Radcliffe, “But, he couldn’t have done it alone and, as we expanded the scope to include all who’d enabled him and aided and abetted his rise, well, it just kept going and finally just roped in pretty much everybody. To that end, the whole of humanity has earned itself a participation trophy,” adding listlessly, "So, congratulations, I guess?"

“It all stopped being funny a couple of years ago and now, it seems altogether pointless,” says former Darwin Award committee member, Daniel Wood, adding, “Skipping this year isn't a very controversial move, nobody can credibly argue against doing that.”

The committee said in a press release that it plans to shelter-in-place on the Galapagos Islands in the hope that after a few million years they will evolve into some sort of otter like creatures because, "Who doesn't like otters?" 

 

Ben Affleck to Be New Face of Uncle Ben's Rice

"We're Swapping Out One Ben for Another, So Problem Solved!"

(AFA NewsWire) At a hastily called press conference this morning, the parent company of Uncle Ben's Rice announced that actor/director Ben Affleck will become the new face of their product.

Under intense pressure to change their mascot, an image drawn from racist iconography, the company believes it has found a speedy and satisfactory resolution.

"He's somebody's uncle, right?" stated Harlan Dervish, spokesman for the company's marketing team, "I mean, Casey Affleck's probably got kids, doesn't he? We'll check IMDB... he is, yes, good," adding, "It's a twofer! An uncle and he's named Ben!"

"All we have to do now is change the picture on the package and we're good," said a visibly relieved Dervish, "And, by swapping out one Ben for another, the company stands to save millions of dollars by avoiding the disruption and high cost of a complete rebranding, savings we can pass on to the consumer!"

"We went through a long list of potential replacements before settling on Mr. Affleck: Ben Stiller, Ben Franklin, Ben Turpin, Benjamin Harrison, Benjamin Bratt, Benny Hill, H. Jon Benjamin and the TV bear Gentle Ben," said Dervish in response to reporters' questions about why Mr. Affleck was chosen, "The problem wasn't the name 'Ben', just who Ben was. Mr. Affleck ticked off all the boxes, a Ben, an uncle, not a racial stereotype and, except for maybe Daredevil, Gigli, Jersey Girl, The Accountant, Pearl Harbor and his turn as Batman, fairly well-liked."

"With this change, we've fixed everything, so we can all get back to enjoying this fine line of rice products, now available in microwavable pouches."

Asked if he anticipated any blowback for replacing a black mascot with a white one, Dervish responded, "Oh, for . . . Geez, we're done here."

Details and terms of Mr. Affleck's involvement were not revealed and Mr. Affleck or his representatives did not respond to our requests for comment.

Trump Awards Himself Medal of Freedom and Purple Heart

WASHINGTON DC (AFA NewsWire) At an unscheduled Rose Garden ceremony held early this morning, president Donald Trump awarded himself the Presidential Medal of Freedom and the Purple Heart. 

“When I said that I view the number of cases [of COVID-19] as a badge of honor, I meant it literally,” said Mr. Trump, “And this medallion is proof of my commitment to bravely sacrificing as many lives as it takes to keep America in the forefront of anything, always and in every way, no matter what.”

Vice president Mike Pence, beaming with pride and admiration, handed the medal to the president who then looped the ribbon holding it around his own head. Mr. Pence then pinned a Purple Heart onto the president’s suit jacket.

“I’ve always wanted one of these,” said Mr. Trump, “And no president has ever deserved it more than I do. Every day, I suffer more attacks than anyone who’s ever held this office. My enemies, in the fake media, the Democrats, they come at me day after day, nonstop, so unfairly, wounding me with relentless insults and meanness. But,” the president continued, “I’m telling them, here and now, to just turn around. They’re not welcome anymore. I will go on. I will survive. They may think I’d just crumble. Just lay down and die. But, no, Oh no, I will survive. Oh, I know I'll stay alive. I've got all my life to live and I'll survive. I will survive. Hey, hey.”

When asked if the Pentagon had signed off on presenting a medal usually awarded for wounds suffered in combat to a civilian with no history of military service for, essentially, hurt feelings, the Joint Chiefs' press officer pretended to be an answering machine, told us to leave a message, said “Beep” and then quickly hung up.
