Every suspenseful syllable of the 2023 International Speed-Knitting Competition rundown had me in stitches, Jeff! šŸ¤£šŸ¤£šŸ¤£

That's it. You've won April 1.

I was eating and darn near choked - thank you for the laughs!! As for this trans garbage.... I don't even know where to begin, but I do think April 1st should be their official day because the whole thing is a joke. How about one them identify as a sane adult who contributes something to society? Anyone? Anyone? Bueller?

Woe to those who enact evil statutes

And to those who constantly record unjust decisions,

So as to deprive the needy of justice

And rob the poor of My people of their rights,

So that widows may be their spoil

And that they may plunder the orphans.

Now what will you do in the day of punishment,

And in the devastation which will come from afar?

To whom will you flee for help?

And where will you leave your wealth?

ā€” Isaiah 10:1-3 NASB1995

Excellent satire Jeff. To quote a line from one buffet you can't dine at (Jimmy Buffett): "If we couldn't laugh we would all go insane."

I'm embarrassed to admit that I was 2/3 of the way through before I looked at today's date.

That may also be a reflection, though, on how bat-sh*t crazy our world has become that the first couple of segments seemed even somewhat plausible .

šŸ¤£šŸ¤£šŸ¤£šŸ¤£. Thank you Jeff. You never disappoint. IMHO Hostess is overrated in the weapons of mass destruction department. I have stock in Little Debby--think I can get a lucrative DOD contract?

So this was a good one that happened in Canada.....

Male power lifter coach steps in at last minute, Identifies as a girl and takes the title that was set by some trans lifter. Beat them at their own game.

Ok, in my defense, I thought you're writing was a little off and weird this morning. But I must confess, you got me. I was literally googling this stuff like, "What? That can't be real." It's April 1st, and I missed the joke šŸ™‚ Well done sir šŸ‘
