LIVE NOW! The Invitational Week 4: Our 'look back' at 2023, plus Questionable Journalism

Further adventures of our favorite joke-butts, crowdsourced from our band of Losers. And the new contest -- a chance to gleefully misinterpret the news media.

Vice President Walter “Mad Dog” Mondale

A. “Sometimes he would stand in the sitting room . . .”
Q. How do we know Walter Mondale was a rebel at heart?

It’s a contest we’ve had tons o’ fun with over the years, in our beloved  A&Q format – plus it lets you willfully misinterpret the news media! This week: Choose any sentence (or the major part of a sentence) from any publication dated Jan. 26-Feb, 3 and follow it with a question it could answer.

And we have a totally bogus timeline of the events of 2023 — well, we THINK they’re bogus. Maybe the new apparel brand Kanyeezy has come out with a line of brown shirts.

See it all now at The Gene Pool, the Substack site of collaborator Gene Weingarten (along with chat on various Gene-ric topics.
