(28,817 posts)1. I got the same thing.
Twisted the truth to make himself look better.
That pretty much says it all.

LakeArenal
(28,817 posts)4. But the person who sent it doesn't get jokes.
Serious trumper.

(51,087 posts)5. Oh..... The one YOU got. I'd block then if they're that dumb.
And evil.

(28,817 posts)6. Well I may have gotten the joke if it wasn't served to me as serious.
This trumper calls trump our handsome courageous President.
So her sending as her own, yeah I didnt get the joke. Besides I hate Brady too so seemed right.
But I will say, I do miss a lot of the jokes that pass as satire.

(28,817 posts)8. I'm also dyslexic. It takes me a bit to process paragraphs of info. I get it wrong. It's okay.

(e.g., I hope I die peacefully in my sleep like my grandpa, not screaming in terror like his passengers)
That is so freaking obscure and perfect....I hope to tuck it into memory but next time I need the word I doubt I'll be able to recall it. Bravo!
