Ripping the Headlines Today, 5/2/21

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

The news (like the story about Arnold Schwarzenegger) 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:

Arnold Schwarzenegger said cutting out bread helped him lose weight

So, sounds like he just said “Hasta La Vista, Bakery!”

People around the globe celebrating Earth Day

… While Andrew Cuomo celebrated by grabbing Mother Nature by the face and giving her a big kiss.

… $39,025 if you buy it including headphones …

Well, now we know what he used all the money he saved after that wedding with JLO that was canceled.

It’s always funny to see Chris Christie and the word run in the same sentence.

Does anyone know who Meghan McCain’s father was? … Seems to never come up.

Kanye West asks for joint custody, no spousal support

No word if that’s custody for the kids or Khloe.

It could be worse, Putin could’ve had him moved to a higher floor with lots of open windows.

Didn’t anyone tell him Mar A Lago is Spanish for “Get in Line?”

De Niro unable to turn down acting roles because of his “estranged wife’s expensive lifestyle”

Now when he says: “Are you talking to me?” he hopes it’s about making ‘Meet the Folkers 6,7, and 8.’

RIP, DMX

He didn’t look a day over CDMV.

She was charged with reckless driving and a lane violation!

… people are saying, if Shapiro gave that plank to his wife, it’ll the first good wood she’s gotten in a long time …
