Some weeks the news requires analysis. Some weeks it requires a stiff drink, a long stare into the middle distance, and professionals with ink pens. We have, once again, reached the latter.
Get cozy, grab your beverage of choice, and prepare yourself for this edition of The Sunday Funnies!
Arc de Ego
The French had Napoleon. We have a Sharpie and absolutely no one willing to say, “Maybe not.” Gentle parenting is not working.
