He doesn't write much these days but when he does it's always a hoot. Sorry I can't get the link to work for some reason.


Is there anything positive we can say about 2021?

Yes. We can say that it was marginally better than 2020.

Granted, this is not high praise. It’s like saying that somebody is marginally nicer than Hitler. But it’s something.

What was better about 2021? For one thing, people finally emerged from their isolated pandemic cocoons and started connecting with others. Granted, the vast majority of the people who connected with us this year wanted to discuss our car’s extended warranty. But still.

Another improvement was that most stores got rid of those one-way anti-COVID arrows on the floor. Remember those, from 2020? You’d be halfway down a supermarket aisle, and you’d realize that you’d gone past the Cheez-Its, but you couldn’t turn around and go back because you’d be going AGAINST THE ARROWS, which meant YOU WOULD GET COVID.


It's lengthy but well worth it.

I read it after having it sent to me yesterday….I’m sorry, but the formerly fairly funny, but always super creepy looking Dave Barry, just comes off as ridiculously biased, like most Trump haters.

I've missed Dave Barry.
It's good to see he's not dead.

Guess you missed the part where he lampoons Biden non-stop for being an idiot.

There's always got to be a Debbie Downer, Godwin's Law predicted this. Bloody wankers, always spoiling the fun, which was I was a going for, the funny

It's contagious, this funny.
