Irish Comics

Obituaries are a dying art Antoinette. 

Well trick and treaters it's Halloween week which means what better topic to discuss than death! Mayhem🌋🚔🌪 may ensue, so you better make sure your Allstate premium is paid up. Later this week the dead and the undead get another chance at life.🧟‍♂️🧟‍♀️Kids are legally allowed to rot their teeth. Adults can get away with wearing unusually risque costumes 🧜‍♂️🧜‍♀️as well as risque behavior without being a congresswoman from California.🙈 Normal people will just drink adult beverages🍷 and watch sports on TV 🏈while trying to quiet their dog 🐶from barking at the constant ringing of the doorbell, and those lacking common sense will continue to read death notices in rags formerly known as legitimate (ok semi legitimate) newspapers. That's right we're talking about the Irish comics!🍀The obit page... where nothing bothers you if you're dead, but for those still above ground you're gonna need a bigger bottle! 🍸Sláinte!🍻 Apparently, people propagandizing polarized political perspectives purportedly praise perverted person! Now of course that alliterative headline is not one you're likely to see, but... and I'm not making this up... the following WaPo headline happened..."...Baghdadi, austere religious scholar and head of Islamic state, dies at 48." Now you probably don't even know who that is, but if the headline had read, "World's most wanted terrorist, rapist, beheader, murdering S.O.B. blown to bits" you'd know who I was talking about. I guess The Washington Post is Where Austere Religious Scholars Go to Die. Who knew? 🤔 And it's not like they are alone... billionaire idiot, Michael "the bloom has faded" berg's newspaper headlined their obit, "Islamic state leader transformed himself from little known teacher... into self proclaimed ruler." As if the prob with him was he didn't go through the election process and presumably DNC scripted CNN debates. Huh? Now I know these are politicized times, and rags like WaPo and the Old Grey Lady, (shhhhh, not you HRC...I'll get to you later) only speak to those in their looney echo chamber, but it's incredulous to think they don't even want to be remotely relevant... and this boys and girls is the scariest idea you can go as on Halloween. What's black and white, and red allover...MSM with blood on their hands!📰 They say and print the most extreme things about elected people they don't like including the President🗣, but treat quite possibly the most evil man thankfully no longer living with kid gloves.🧤 What gives? As former White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer said,  "it's really not necessary to lick the balls of a terrorist to prove you're anti-Trump."🙊 It makes me wonder what other obits they wished they had written. How about these suggestions, "Mao, who saved 50 million Chinese from having to live through communism, dies at 82." Or, "Ghengis Khan, world traveler and sperm donor, dies in horsing accident." Or how about, "Austrian immigrant and ardent anti culture appropriationist, Hitler,  passes peacefully alongside wife and dog." And last one,  "Clintons mourn the deaths of Foster, Rich, Epstein and others who accidentally suicided themselves!" 🙈🙉🙊 Ok, maybe that was a little crass. In fact maybe, the MSM are just heeding the advice of their mother about not speaking ill of the dead.🙊 In that case...nah... ain't nobody got time for that. In fact if you want to really scare someone dress in a pantsuit like #imwithered and wear a placard saying, "make it look like a suicide."🙉 Sorry, I didn't mean to scare you. 🧟‍♀️ Oh well, enough of the scary Halloween. Time for the fun loving, beer drinking Halloween. Afterall, it's a party so don't dress as the Party Pooper, be the life of the party! Yeah #metoo 

Now that's how you kiss October goodbye. That, and maybe doing some stuff like we did in 1979, like Smashing Pumpkins...

Shakedown 1979, cool kids never have the time
On a live wire right up off the street
You and I should meet
June bug skipping like a stone
With the headlights pointed at the dawn
We were sure we'd never see an end to it all

And I don't even care to shake these zipper blues
And we don't know just where our bones will rest
To dust I guess
Forgotten and absorbed into the earth below

...Justine never knew the rules

Hung down with the freaks and the ghouls
No apologies ever need be made
I know you better than you fake it, to see
