WASHINGTON – Tom Price, Secretary of the U.S. Health and Human Services Department, resigned today, claiming that he wished to take some time off and spend more money with his family. Secretary Price stated that he came to the realization that resigning from his position was far easier than paying back all of the taxpayer money he had used to fund expensive vacations for his family. “With all of the money we have saved, I think we can afford a few more lavish trips,” Price said from the deck of a yacht in the national harbor. “I told everyone I wouldn’t…

LOS ANGELES – Expressing frustration that traffic had been stopped for over thirty minutes, commuters Wednesday morning reportedly surmised that the person considering jumping from the I-110 overpass must not care at all if people are late to work. “You’d think he’d have the consideration to take his life at night or on a Saturday,” said 32-year-old accountant Jennifer Robinson. “That jerk has been sitting up there with his legs over the railing for a half-hour now, and traffic hasn’t moved an inch. I’m sorry, but some of us have jobs to get to.” “This is just great,” remarked 45-year old…

Persons who wish to travel to the year 2017 will need special permission from the TTAB from this date forward.

WASHINGTON – As Congress returns from recess to a packed agenda, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) is  already throwing up roadblocks as he vowed not to act on a single piece of legislature until a bill to repeal and replace everything he has done, said or thought for the last fifty years was passed through both chambers and sent on to the President to sign. “Having spent the last five decades of my life in politics, and after consulting with a number of experts in the field, I know that my constituents and the country at large will be best…

Having just received the official list of students registered for her class this year, local first-grade teacher Paula Zirkelbach has begun mentally preparing herself for what will no doubt be a sizable number of unconventional names. “I swear, every new class, the parents top themselves,” said Zirkelbach, who has been teaching since 2002. “I’m gonna go ahead and predict that about a quarter to half of them will just be a nonsense syllable with -iah, -den, or -lee stuck to the end. Another three or four will be traditional names spelled weirdly – ‘Myccal’, ‘Leesah’, that kind of thing.” Other…

WASHINGTON – Following the controversial and violent rally in Charlottesville and the counter-protests that have emerged in its wake, the various groups that make up the alt-right, ranging from white supremacists to MRAs to neo-Nazis, have found divisions among themselves over whether to bring feminazis into the fold. “It’s a tough call,” said Richard Spencer, who is widely seen at as leader within the movement. “On the one hand they have Nazis in their name, which is great. On the other, they’re girls, and that makes some of us break out in hives.” While there is disagreement over the inclusion of feminazis,…
