A little attempt at some satire, it’s getting harder, but here goes.
“We here at Democrats Against Media Nationalism and Encouraging Diversity (D.A.M.N.E.D.) are painfully aware that some of our fellow comrades may be having a hard time keeping up with the complex situation regarding the thoughtful restrictions imposed for their own good by those who are much better and cleverer than them.
Many people in the big boring bits between the two enlightened coasts don’t read good and they can’t even see why record low levels of unemployment were actually bad for Black people or why having a President who has failed to start one single foreign war is bad for America. This being the case we here at D.A.M.N.E.D. have produced this simple visual aid to help our comrades that don’t read good to make their way through the maze of regulations, this holiday season.”

Back in high school, my friends and I in the model U.N. club created a “subversive organization” to conduct clandestine operations and generally raise a ruckus at conferences around the country.
We were the National United Popular People’s League For the Abolition of Global Law and Order Organization.
That’s right, N.U.P.P.L.F.A.G.L.O.O.
Pronounced just like it’s spelled.
At my own school’s model U.N. conference, I was the U.S. ambassador. I was also in charge of the lunch crew in the cafeteria. I built my entire time in the General Assembly on the fact that I had to leave early to get lunch started. Manufacturing an international crisis, I rose and spoke angrily about … whatever the hell it was … and stormed out in protest. Then we got lunch ready.
I won the award for outstanding delegate. LMAO
At the national model U.N. conference in Washington D.C. in my senior year, the hotel ran out of spare cots they were using to fit extra people in rooms.
Aw, shucks!
They put me in a big suite by myself. Drinking age in D.C. at the time was 18. I had turned 18 two months earlier. A good time was had by all. And by the girl who lingered after the party.
