nycbos's JournalNation Cruelly Reminded That It Once Had a President
WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report)In a televised event that many deemed unnecessarily cruel, millions of Americans were briefly reminded on Monday that they once had a President.
Unsuspecting Americans who turned on cable news Monday morning were suddenly assaulted with the memory of a time when the countrys domestic affairs, international diplomacy, and nuclear codes were entrusted to an adult.
CNN, one of the networks that televised the event, immediately said that it regretted doing so, and acknowledged that reminding Americans that they recently had a President had caused widespread bereavement and distress. CNN deeply apologizes for the error, a network statement read. It will never happen again.
Compounding the cruelty of the televised event, the networks lingered unnecessarily on a speech that only served to remind viewers that the nation once had a President who rigorously obeyed rules of grammar and diction.

Former Hippies Put in Horrible Position of Rooting for F.B.I.
WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report)Former hippies across the United States have been put in the unbearable position of rooting for the F.B.I., hippies have confirmed.From Vermont to California, erstwhile hippies bemoaned a nightmare scenario that has forced them to side with a law-enforcement agency they have despised since the Summer of Love.
I always dreamed Id spend my retirement surrounded by my grandchildren, telling them that the F.B.I. were fascist pigs, Carol Foyler, a former hippie who lives in Santa Cruz, said. That dream has been shot to hell.
Her husband, Mick, nodded his head in sad agreement. We were so happy when pot was legalized in California, he said. But the fact that were now on the same side as the F.B.I. has ruined even that.

No Way To Prevent This, Says Only Nation Where This Regularly Happens
PARKLAND, FLIn the hours following a violent rampage in Florida in which a lone attacker killed 17 individuals and seriously injured over a dozen others, citizens living in the only country where this kind of mass killing routinely occurs reportedly concluded Wednesday that there was no way to prevent the massacre from taking place. This was a terrible tragedy, but sometimes these things just happen and theres nothing anyone can do to stop them, said Indiana resident Harold Turner, echoing sentiments expressed by tens of millions of individuals who reside in a nation where over half of the worlds deadliest mass shootings have occurred in the past 50 years and whose citizens are 20 times more likely to die of gun violence than those of other developed nations.

Shortly after the former national-security adviser Michael Flynn pleaded guilty to lying to the F.B.I., Pence contacted Jesus to discuss the early rapture proposal, the source said.The source characterized Pences request to be raptured up as urgent but did not indicate whether the Vice-President asked Jesus to rapture up any other senior Administration officials. Some of these people will have to be left behind, for obvious reasons, the source said. Jared, for example.
