As a Money-Saving Measure, Trump Outsources White House Kitchen

[MineralMan]

For a very long time, the dining needs of Presidents have been met by chefs and a kitchen staff in the White House. Those same noted culinary experts have also prepared meals for state dinners and other functions. That tradition is now history. Donald Trump has shut down the White House kitchen and laid off its staff.

"I don't prefer the food that has been coming out of the White House kitchen. The chef there doesn't even know how to cook a well-done steak." Stating that he prefers an all-American cuisine of KFC chicken and MacDonald's Big Macs, the President said, "From now on, food will be brought in from local fast-food establishments by my Secret Service bodyguards. If I have to have a state dinner, we'll just order everything from the Taco Bell menu and have it brought in for a buffet-style service."

Asked for a comment, the now-unemployed White House chef exclaimed, "That man has no taste whatsoever. I'm glad to no longer cook for him. I do not make KFC chicken, nor will I serve burnt steaks. It is an insult to fine dining to cook for that man."

3. I didn't see the...

...sarcasm thingy at first, and thought this was serious. The sad thing is, it could be, and it wouldn't be surprising.

6. Poe's law, baby

Poe's law is an Internet adage that states that, without a clear indicator of the author's intent, it is impossible to create a parody of extreme views so obviously exaggerated that it cannot be mistaken by some readers or viewers as a sincere expression of the parodied views.

The original statement of the adage, by Nathan Poe, was:

Without a winking smiley or other blatant display of humor, it is utterly impossible to parody a Creationist in such a way that someone won't mistake for the genuine article.
