Paying Attention™ Book Club

A Tale of Two Shities

November 27, 2021

While the world continues to extricate itself from the massive, collective brain injury that was the second most recent president, many problems he either created, simply allowed to fester or purposely sabotaged for personal gain, continue to put stress on every aspect of our lives. You remember him – the guy who still, more than a year after being crushed in the election and almost a year since his successor was inaugurated. Yeah, that fucking guy.

Most of the goods people need, and want for the upcoming holiday season, are having trouble making it to market. Just in the nick of time, we bring you another exhilarating title from the people good people at Paying Attention™ who brought you Good Night Goon, Donald and the Very, Very Large Uh-Brain, and Orange Dregs and Scam. This one is something of a remake of a very old classic, brought up-to-date with the hijinks of two of modern-day America’s most high-profile characters. This exciting new title is available wherever imaginary products are sold.

They are the best of slimes, they are the worst of slimes.

Kyrsten’s Enema

Sinema has been described as an “enigma” because she has steadfastly refused to explain any of her positions or reasons for her stances, or to spend one minute engaging with the constituents she was elected to represent. Like her partner in slime Manchin, Sinema’s actual constituents are her big-money donors – greedy corporations like those who peddle drugs, petroleum (and in Manchin’s case the coal industry – responsible for untold death and destruction – that just happens to finance his substantial fortune) and money for rich people.

Like so many of their colleagues on both sides of the DMZ…I mean aisle, the Dyspeptic Duo has love and money for the military industrial complex that know no bounds. Money for real people just trying to survive the crushing capitalism that treats them more like collateral damage than consumers? Fat chance; that would merely interfere with their sacred profit margin.

Sinema, who holds a PhD in justice studies, a law degree, and a master's degree in social work, recently told a reporter, “I don't pay any attention to what they're talking about in the national media. I don't even know what enigma means, really. No one really does.” First of all, if you don’t pay attention to what the national media is talking about, how did you know that they consider you an enigma. Do you know that they also consider you a lightweight and a shameless mouthpiece for corporations? Inquiring minds want to know. Second, I guarantee that there are quite a few people who know precisely what ‘enigma’ means. And you are likely one of them. Third, all your education, degrees and political offices do not protect you from being implausibly stupid.
