For the record, I don’t ignore people by listening to music on my iThingie. I ignore them by playing games on my iThingie. Completely different.

Years ago, Drew Carey hosted an Americanized version of the longtime British show “Whose Line Is It Anyway?” on which one of the funniest recurring games was “Scenes from a Hat.”
One theme that popped up repeatedly was, “Things you can say about ______, but not about your girlfriend.”
Having just watched a couple of reruns of the show in which “Scenes from a Hat” twice featured opportunities for the cast members to tease then-President George W. Bush, I’ve decided it’s time to play a game that allows us to tease his successor:
Things You Can Say About Your Car, but Not About President Obama
“It doesn’t work worth $#!+ but I’ll just repaint it and sell it to some other rube.”
Unfortunately there are some riffs that would just be too easy, and play into the expectations of the race-obsessed idiots who foisted him on us. And mere statements of fact—“Yeah, I couldn’t be happier with it!”—aren’t funny.
The upside is that this requires people to put some thought into it. Unlike the guys on “Whose Line” you can take as long as you want to word your response.
If “as long as you want” is less than 14 months.

The uproar over an inappropriate photo posted to a congressman’s public Twitter feed proves just how bad the economy is—cheap jokes are all anyone can afford.
<snicker> I just said “congress.”

How long have I been talking about wanting an anti-social network called “Get Outa My FaceBook?”
No attribution or nothing. Who does he think he is, Glenn Beck?
Update, many days later: Turns out Piraro didn’t steal my idea, this guy did. Apparently he’s responsible for a lot of the gags in “Bizarro.” He’s also drawing the strip during the week of May 16-20.

The Badger 14 have made another music cameo, this time with Paul McCartney:
Well the parliamentarian drew a heavy sigh
When we missed the quorum call
The sergeant-at-arms is searching everywhere
But we’ve vanished one and all
Dems on the run
Dems on the run
We don’t want to lose
So we refuse
To get public business done
We’re the Dems on the run
Dems on the run
I’ll have more updates as I make them up.

I haven’t been following the news much the last few days, but I just heard something weird—apparently the Badger 14 have made a cameo in an old country song:
Well we rolled down Interstate 94
Like a rocket sled on rails
We tore up all of our swindle sheets
And left ‘em settin’ on the scales
By the the time we hit that Chi-town
Them Smokeys was a-gettin’ smart
They’d brought up some reinforcements
From the Illinoise National Guard
There was armored cars and tanks and jeeps
And rigs of every size
Them chicken coops was full of bears
And choppers filled the skies
Well we shot the line and went for broke
With a thousand screaming trucks
And fourteen Wisconsin state senators
In a funny lookin’ little short bus
Uh, Rubber Duck to Stunt Badger, c’mon there, yeah, 10-4 Stunt Badger?
Listen, you wanna put that short bus in behind that suicide jockey?
Yeah, he’s haulin’ dynamite and we need all the help we can get.

The prognosticating rodent did not see his shadow, because this time when I dragged him out of his hole at two minutes after midnight, I turned off my flashlight.
I learned my lesson after last time.
