Ask not what your country can do for you; ask what it has done for you lately.
Absence makes the heart go flounder.
Better to marry than be bored.
Better to divorce than to bore.
Love is a game where practice never makes perfect (unlike Russian Roulette).
Alcohol is a gift for the mediocre.
Reality TV is performance art as practiced by amateurs.
Technology is a fashion statement.
No city is worth living in if you are forced to enjoy it by car.
Whines get bitter with age.
The best-looking cafés serve the worst coffee.
If the shoe fits, put on the other one.

The Toronto Maple Leafs Haiku
You only get three lines: it's too funny for me; too sad for your fans. Golf, Leafs, Golf! Note: I wrote this after the team choked out in the second round (their first time there in 19 years). As a Montréal Canadians fan, I try not to laugh at the bozos on blades...but it is hard to do so...

Great stuff, Kendall. But maybe get out for a walk- good heavens you've all Montreal to distract you from the madness! 🤣🤣🤣🤪🤣🤣🤣
Some real gems here, Kendall! I have to consider whether this one "Love is a game where practice never makes perfect (unlike Russian Roulette)." couldn't also be "(much like Russian Roulette)" LOL great list. Well done!
