This was the big weekend. It was the time when everyone’s favorite couch-rapist, one Mr. J.D. Vance, was going to enjoy a prominent appearance on the world stage and just put the finishing touches on a peace deal with Iran, since they had, like, totally surrendered and stuff.
I’m not sure if you’ve heard, since Vance’s pedophilic boss mentions it at every turn, but we’ve destroyed Iran’s Navy, their Army, their radar, their communications, their Space Force, and everything else, and besides all that, there’s been like a total regime change and everything.
And, while all this was going on, I simply wanted to enjoy my meal at Lazy Bear with the wife on a very rainy Saturday night.
