Thanksgiving Episode V: The Turkeys Strike Back

27 Nov

November 27, 2016

Turkeys. How can something so tasty and delicious be so violent and angry? (I could ask the same question of my ex-girlfriend, but I digress.)

We’ve just celebrated another Thanksgiving, but before the weekend is over, we must also bow our heads and pay respect to those who are still fighting the battle.

That is one angry turkey. And wouldn’t you be? Thanksgiving is a horror show for them. And speaking of horror shows, The Walking Dead has it wrong. We shouldn’t be worried about the zombie apocalypse, the turkey apocalypse is already upon us. I’ve written about turkey terror before. Here’s another news story that proves that we must never let our guard down when it comes to this flightless plague.

This Is What Was, Last Week

18 Aug

August 18, 2016

It was a great week for news! Mr. BTR was everywhere!

Hilary Clinton continued to make headlines with her foreign policy of “Donald Trump is scary,” her domestic policy of “Donald Trump is divisive,” and her jobs plan of “Donald Trump plans to wage war on the human race.” Trump, on the other hand, had to deal with a kook scaling his Trump Tower with suction cups and a bizarre plan to plant the Mr. Blog’s Tepid Flag on the roof.

He may not have made it, but I got more than my money’s worth in free advertising. 

It didn’t so shit for this blog though. You should see how bad the stats get during the summer months!

Meanwhile, speaking of millionaires with inflated egos, Alex Rodriguez retired was pushed out by the Yankees since A- he sucks and B- no one can stand him. In his pregame ceremony prior to his last game, the skies opened up and rained on his parade. Literally. As the New York Post put it, “God hates A-Rod.” And why not? It’s not like God has the patience of a saint. 

However, in his post-game press conference, A-Roid had nothing but praise for the Yankee organization, his teammates, and of course Mr. Blog’s Tepid Ride.

Love him or hate him, but the man has taste.

The Rio Olympics are going on. Who knows where this blog will pop up in the coverage?
Probably nowhere. I’m paying zero attention to the Olympics.
