According to experts, individuals infected with the virus have an “excessive and unhealthy interest in guaranteeing medical care to all humans as a right.” The DNC has been working closely with CNN, MSNBC and other mainstream media outlets to curb the spread of the disease, which has reached pandemic proportions. An estimated forty million cases have already been confirmed in the…

BROCKWAY, Pa. – A 127-year-old Spanish flu survivor has said that the 1918 pandemic, considered the worst pandemic in human history, “was just a bunch of hogwash.”  Pennsylvania-born Gup Crinkleford has survived some of America’s most troubling times, but he wasn’t fooled by the pandemic of 1918. “A bunch of horse hockey is what it was,” Crinkleford said, adamant that the pandemic, which killed fifty million people, wasn’t really as bad as everyone thought. “Look son, the whole thing was just a big crock,” the illiterate high school dropout said. “If it was so bad, how come nobody I know…

The possibility of a particularly tricky sandtrap was also seen as highly concerning. Additionally, military analysts were undergoing “catastrophic event” simulations, should the…

After a landmark deal with the Devil in February this year, the Trump administration has continued its payout of over 118,00 American-made souls in return for a reelection in November. But the sudden oversupply of souls to the Devil has led to record-low returns on retail-level devil deals. “We’re absolutely overwhelmed by souls at the moment,” said Satan, Prince of Hell and Lead Negotiator for Netherworld, Inc. “We originally promised to deliver a reelection to Donald Trump in exchange for a sacrifice of just 50,000 citizens. To say he overdelivered would be the understatement of the century.” But the sudden…

OZ – The Wizard of Oz is being questioned by the city council for using $1.2 billion in emergency funds to build a yellow brick road connecting the city with Munchkin Land. The wizard has defended the use of funds as not only “necessary” and “urgent,” but also as “good for tourism.” At Thursday’s council meeting, however, Council Member Apple Tree referred to the spending as “wasteful” and said there was no public support for the project. “This road is massive and could easily have been paved with another, less expensive material aside from these custom yellow bricks,” Apple Tree…

BRENTWOOD, Tenn. – Graduation had an extra special attendee in the audience Saturday at West Pine High School.  Serving U.S. Marine Chuck Campbell took an unplanned leave from the military base where he is currently stationed and showed up to surprise his senior son, Rich Campbell.

Unfortunately for the Campbells, upon arrival at the school, it was explained to…
