I'm pretty sure there's another coming in May. He posted a frame from it sometime right after Chuck Berry died. I think it's a Sunday, which I guess he does on a different timetable than the weekdays.

Not that I expect that one to be better. Just something to look forward to!

Also, I'll go ahead and grab the low-hanging fruit real quick:

I had a dream last night that scammers were walking around dogs without tails, had a fake tail in their hand and were convincing people to give them money to help their dog whose tail had just fallen off. If they didn't give money the dog would die, they said. I saw them do this twice, once outside my childhood house, once at an outdoor mall. I confronted them at the outdoor mall, they said they had to hide because they were ex-KGB. I swear, no rarebit was involved.

This is absurdly hilarious. I love Mary Worth.

I do want to note that the dialogue seems particularly stilted and forced in this storyline. I am like 75% sure this is indeed an ad.
