Ripping the Headlines Today, 2/19/21

Making fun of the headlines today, so you don’t have to

The news doesn’t need to be complicated and confusing; that’s what any new release from Microsoft is for. And, as in the case with anything from Microsoft, to keep the news from worrying our pretty little heads over, remember something new and equally indecipherable will come out soon:

Really all you need to do is follow one simple rule: barely pay attention and jump to conclusions. So, here are some headlines today and my first thoughts:

Word is, FOX News has been losing viewers so quickly soon they’ll have to start airing ‘Fox and Friend.’

Ja Rule is giving stock market advice…?  I’m not feeling so bad about getting that medical advice from Dr. Dre.

Good thing that wasn’t Jay Cutler or it would’ve been picked off and swam back to a touchdown!

I guess, at least, one person learned a lesson from the first trial.
