Ripping the Headlines Today, 12/14/20

Making fun of the headlines today, so you don’t have to

The news doesn’t need to be complicated and confusing; that’s what any new release from Microsoft is for. And, as in the case with anything from Microsoft, to keep the news from worrying our pretty little heads over, remember something new and equally indecipherable will come out soon:

Really all you need to do is follow one simple rule: barely pay attention and jump to conclusions. So, here are some headlines today and my first thoughts:

… and who can blame them?

Rudy Giuliani comes down with Coronavirus

Nobody’s too worried because only garlic, a wooden stake, or sunlight can kill him.

Mike Tyson-Roy Jones Jr. fight reportedly brought in $80 million

… but is worth $140 million, if you factor in those AARP discounts.

January Jones trolled the National Enquirer after it asked her to comment on her ‘desperate’ bikini posts

No word if the Enquirer is now going to sick Big Foot, Nessie and/or ETs on her.
