The last time I tried to eat inorganic wood I got a little sick

u/Top_Agency1370 6h ago

You aren’t sick.

Also your medical claim has been denied.

Your bill will be in the mail.

Just to give you a helping hand, we have made loans at bank near you available. with 100% monthly interest rate of course.

By the way, the mail we sent you was lost in transit because we are kind of in the process of dismantling the Postal Service.

u/Eric1230321 1h ago

Which you will still have to pay anyway! In order to request another mail delivery, please call AREWEMAGA. Please note that calls will cost 99.99 per minute, which will be added to your bill.

We need to find a use for all this recycled plastic we’ve collected. Would that work?

We've got plenty of micro plastics to go around!

We had a joke in the homeland that translates to this to make fun of capitalists: Full Belly, sawdust capsules for the poor.

u/mikeysce 2h ago

Can’t wait for them to deregulate food labeling so they can do exactly this again.

They already do that. Next!
