I would rather...

...be Kanye West's press agent.

...organize a Mensa meeting at Mar-A-Lago.

...open a McDonald's at a fat farm.

...sell Taylor Swift merch at a heavy metal festival.

...run a cooking show with Hannibal Lecter.

...drop a lit firecracker in an open-carry state.

...be a Kardashian without the looks.

...hold an AA meeting at a brewery.

...be next in line for the British throne...

than to have another sensible poem

on this page...

Sad but true...
