Tariffying Times

Satire1 jumps on the Make’m Pay To Play controversy by visiting Supine and Vine in beautiful downtown Mayberry, North Carolina to ask citizens and visitors what they think, sense and feel in this year of the tariff.

Fat Jack

“Take everything made in China out of the house and the place will be half empty. Then toss everything that is at least 25 per cent foreign parts or ingredients. There’s going to be nothing in that house except for naked adults and the children they made here if they weren’t on vacation at conception.”

Big Betty

“I told my husband he had no huevos and he said who can afford them?”

Henny Penny

“The Chinese invented paper. What if they pull copyright on us and take back all our paper? That would be our money too? Wouldn’t it? You walk into a Chinese take out joint or laundry and you’re just surrendering yourself to them?”

Nickle Nookie

“The next pope is going to be a robot. Artificial Ignorance has already taken over and is changing the rules in its favor faster than Trump.”

Barney Fife

“I like pickles. We make those here, don’t we?”

Business Suit & Ball Cap

“My wife’s put a tariff on blowjobs. Used to be a table cloth restaurant dinner. Now it’s up to a weekend vacation. No bob anniversaries and now even my birthday is a maybe. How’s this going to help manufacturing come back to America? What have the Republicans got against blowjobs?

Toothpaste Tube Workout Outfit

“Most of the cosmetics we working girls could afford doubled in price. I hear the young women in Asheville are already making their own tampons.”

Next Up: States

“What’s with New Mexico? It’s America. It’s not Mexico new or old. That’s it. Drop the new and start calling the other Mexico Old Mexico or South Mexico. I like that. Hey, you can go back to calling the Gulf the Gulf of Mexico again. Not the Old Gulf of South Mexico. It’s going to save us billions. Now we don’t have to build a moat. 

I have no trouble with New York. They don’t vote for me but it’s hometown and the city really is new in every sense of the word. New Jersey is another story. What’s with Jersey? The state of new shirt? New cow? Someone help me out here. Some island with a pub. Sounds like a beautiful woman’s name. Maybe not beautiful but certainly a really built woman’s name. Just call it Jersey or Turnpike.

California? That’s not a name. That’s a sentence. I’d say just call it Big but we need that for Texas. I love Texas and Texas loves me but it sounds too much like Taxes. We don’t like taxes. Take away the T and we got Axes. Guns would be more accurate. Okay, then it’s settled. We’ll call California Big and Texas Guns. That’ll end all this red blue division. Get rid of the wrong names. We can all be purple again. Just like Mother Money wanted.

Utah? You tall? I’m tall. I don’t know about you. Massachusetts? Gesundheit. It’s a sneeze not a state. Leave them blue. Who wants them? They claim to be the original abolitionist state and the first four letters spell Massa. You can’t make this up.  

Arizona? Florida? California? Montana? Spanish names. Spain has no business leaving their names lying all over the Americas. No wonder we kicked them out. No wonder all these migrants invade us. These states have Spanish names. Not English names. New Hampshire, Wisconsin, nothing Spanish sounding about those states. The migrants leave them alone.

 The Dakotas? Indian names. Native Americans were the first illegal aliens. Back to the reservation, Chief. And get your thumb out of my turkey.

Arizona? Just call the state Tea. Migrants don’t drink tea. Tequila and coffee. They’ll leave Tea alone. They’ll look someplace else. We’ll get the best Asians there instead Don’t even need a wall.  Florida is some Easter flower show? I live in Florida. It’s not that gay, believe me. Cubans yeah. No LGBTQRST. Not in Lago. That’s a big No No.

Wyoming why not? Name the states that are saying something else. I’ll ask yah. Are cans ass? How why I? I’d the hoe. Ill in noise. I owe wha? Cans ass. My shit can. Oh! Hi! Oh. Rhode Island is not an island. No way they keep that lie for a name through my administration. A state cannot be a lie. And some are.

Marriage is for Monsters

Mrs. Jack Ripper

“I don’t care what he does on his nights out. He doesn’t touch a knife in my flat. He has to butter his bread with a spoon, he does. He just loves cutting meat- flesh so much. He’s never bit me. Even in the… I know that’s what you were asking yourselves. He only kills tarts. I don’t know what all the fuss is about.” 

Frankenstein Monster

“I asked the doctor to look around for a bigger pecker for me. Nothing violent. Peek around the morgue some. The stiffs aren’t using them. Hope to find some older hung guy who had a get a nut induced heart attack. Most of the stiffs are stiff everywhere but. It’d really help me with the bride. You have no idea how much bone it takes to keep that shock fro going. “

Queen Kong

“Of course I was jealous of the white girl but only at first. I mean, what could King possibly do with her? All the little bitch could do is scream for Christ’s sake. She was a toy and those little white men were going to kidnap King anyway. I’m just glad they didn’t come after me. Hope to never see those white devils on Skull Island again.”

Countess Dracula

“Of course he needs- we need- new contributors but I tell him the poor, ugly girls taste just as good. These refined debutantes he goes after always have some fiancé or Van Helsing wannabe to hassle us.  Bat Drac wants me to round up young men for us. I told him they drink cheap hooch and have butt crack breath. Seduce them and all their blood’s in their pants.  I’m not sucking down there.”

Suck down there to have a Happy Valentine’s Day

Inauguration Day 25

Everybody’s sticking their fingers up my wife’s ass

Who do they think they are? Nuns?

These artists at the museum squatting

Trying to steal strokes from the masters

My cousin has a stroke every year

His wife went to art school

And people think guns are dangerous

I wipe my ass with a revolver

An egg’ll kill you

If you can afford one

Or know a hen

Don’t try to get an egg from a friend

Not these days

Bird Flu?

Birds were always flying 

What’s the big Yup?

If it’s bird flu how come cows get it?

Biden never explained that

Maybe Trump will

Taking the Inauguration indoors

Finally admitting the White House and Congress

Are just two big barns

A couple of crows could run the country better

If those tariffs go through

I’m back to wearing newspaper underwear

With Tic Tock gone I’m back to staring at my hand

Wasn’t there a twenty here just a minute ago?

Ducks have bills

I get paid in fly paper!

I Don't Like Her Shoes

The Democratic Party is in the midst of their Grand Inquisition because the Grand Old Party won both houses of Congress along with the presidency. Satire1 has taken to the corner of Main Street and Popeye Place in Ann Arbor, Michigan to inquire why voters didn’t return to the donkey fold last week.

Woman with three dogs

“Harris looks too damn good for her age. At least Trump and Biden have the decency to look like shit.”

Mag Hat Matt

“The weather has been kicking our ass all year and we need a president not afraid to kick Mother Nature’s ass back.”

Woman with four dogs and a cat

“Biden should have put his wife up in his place. That’s how it works in most households and family businesses. She is a professor and doctor and blond and she has the sense and foresight to almost never address the American people who never want to hear about it anyway.”

Pudding Puss

“Harris raises chickens at the Vice President’s Brown House Mansion. All Southeast Asians do. Before she became Biden’s squeeze there was no bird flu or Chicken Covid let alone that Jamaican Jerk Virus.”

Thigh High Red Boots

“Don’t you know? Harris is really a guy- the whole Bay Area is trans. Except when she plays sports.”

Hockey Stick

“Kamala was in charge of the border and let anyone in who was open to a sex change and murdering 

a fetus.”

Too Busy Hairdo

“Kitten-less Cat Lady.

Farmer Bean

“All politicians are thieves and Trump’s the only one who’s smart enough to get away with it.
