Your Weekly Politickle: IT’S THE LAW!

Why Pay for Politickles?

You can get them for free, so why pay for them? It’s hard to argue with that logic. Paying for Politickles really doesn’t make much sense. But does everything have to make sense? Don’t you get the urge every once in a while to do something irrational? Maybe this is one of those times.

If you’re feeling kind of crazy and have an impulse to pay for something that’s free, or you just want to show solidarity with the nutcases who’ve already contributed, don’t stifle yourself. Act now! Click the DONATE button top right. It may be the most frivolous thing you do all year.

Feel free to publish, post, or pass on Your Weekly Politickle by F.R. Duplantier:

IT’S THE LAW!
Seatbelt on your easy chair,
Life vest in the tub to wear,
Steel-toed bedroom slippers,
Velcro trouser zippers,
Flame-retardant underwear.

From the archive:

ZERO RISK?
I anticipate danger ahead
And foresee myself injured or dead
– From falling, perchance,
While putting on pants,
So I’d better not get out bed.
(1998)

Last week’s limerick:

CLICK IT OR TICKET
“I’m afraid I must take you downtown,”
The policeman announced with a frown.
Such a fate I was dealt
For not wearing a belt –
Which was why my new trousers fell down.
