The Way Things Are

It seems that it is the duty of each generation

to explain to each succeeding generation how

things have changed. It used to snow a hell of

a lot more back in the day. Why, when I was a

child, I had to walk miles to school and back

home every day. What’s more, it was up hill

both ways. My mother would wash my mouth

out with soap had I said some of the things you

kids say today. Nowadays it seems more likely

and appropriate that we encourage our children

to follow the example set by our elected officials:

Be a bully, defy the rules of common decency,

promote yourself and demean others who dis-

agree with you. Be disrespectful of women,

the disabled and the less fortunate. Grab all the

p***y, fame and fortune you can. Lie, cheat and

steal, divide. You too, my child, can become President
of the United States of America…

Go ahead, build that wall! Lock her up!—Only you
can Make America Great Again!
