Soon to be Muslim Majority Nation Announces Line of Succession!

Prince William will succeed me as he stands a better chance of not being killed by the Religion of Peace™

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

When I walk around New York City I am often stopped by people who ask me if I think de Blasio is as big an asshole as they do if I am as worried as they are about the British line of succession. Well worry no more. Queen Elizabeth has formally announced that William and Kate shall become King and Queen, bypassing her son Prince Charles (pictured here).

Prince Charles is not happy about being passed over

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

“The Queen felt that William and Kate had the star power necessary to save the Monarchy” said a source close to the Queen.

The Queen realizes that the House of Windsor no longer has the respect that it once had. She blames Prince Charles for this. With his divorce from Lady Diana and then his cavorting with Camilla he has proven unfit to wear the crown.

However many feel that the Queen chose William and Kate for a different reason.

“She realizes that England shall soon be a Muslim nation and sharia law will be the law of the land” said a top official in the British government.

She feels that Prince Charles is too old and makes an easy target for someone driving a car on the sidewalk.  William and Kate are younger, more athletic and faster. My god have you seen Kate’s calf muscles? Those two will be able to react in time and dive out of of the way should a member of the Religion of Peace™ find themselves driving into a crowd of pedestrians. Naturally this is not a reflection upon Islam. We have many Muslims in this country and some of them do not kill us. 

Still others feel that Prince Charles was passed over because of “aesthetic differences.

“It is well known in Buckingham Palace that the Queen loves Guns and Roses” said a Palace insider.

She has a poster of Axl Rose over her bed and thinks he is quite sexy. Prince Charles on the other hand prefers Madonna. I remember one time during dinner Charles said “Mummy would you like to do the Vogue with me?”  The Queen just put her head in her hands and waited for him to leave the dinner table. When he finally did she turned to me and said “I can have him killed you know.” I persuaded her not to as that would cause a constitutional crisis.

The announcement of the line of succession has caused a rift between Prince Charles and his mother with reports of tension in the Palace. Indeed Prince Charles has rarely been seen in public.

“Prince Charles is naturally disappointed but still loves his mother” said an aide to the Prince.

But being English he can’t show that his pride is hurt. Stiff upper lip and all that you know. So he is going to work off his frustration the only way we know how: He is going to lead an expeditionary force to invade Ireland and take it for the Crown.

“If I can do to Ireland what Cromwell did to it maybe mummy will love me again” said the bypassed Prince.

Robert Pattinson Refuses to Masturbate; A Dog That Is!

I will not masturbate a dog on a plane. I will not masturbate a dog on a train

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hollywood heartthrob and former sparking vampire Robert Pattinson revealed on the Jimmy Kimmel show that he was asked to masturbate a dog on the set of his latest film, “Good Time.

“The director wanted me to do it” said Pattinson.

I had reservations. Then the trainer said “It’s fine. Just rub the inside of his thigh. I do it all the time. He likes it. He’ll lick your face.” But I still didn’t know. I mean I’m an actor but I have standards. If I wanted to do something sexually disgusting and flat out freaky I’d go back to dating Kristen Stewart.

Reaction in Hollywood to Pattinson’s non-masturbatory act was swift, with many accusing him of speciesism.

A spokesman for SAG-AFTRA condemned Pattinson and said his exclusionary behavior had no place in Hollywood.

If Pattinson wants to confine his masturbation to those who self-identify as human then he can do it on his own time, not when he’s making a movie and representing everything our business proudly stands for. We at SAG-AFTRA condemn his actions in no uncertain terms. We also wish to remind people that Pattinson’s actions do not represent us. Many actors would jump at the chance to redefine species boundaries by masturbating a dog.

Martin Sheen accused Pattinson of setting back the cause of civil rights by decades.

Today our actors are refusing to masturbate dogs. Tomorrow they will be refusing to do gay scenes. The day after that they will refuse to work with Negroes or Hispanics. This is a slippery slope back to the days of Jim Crow. This is what Donald Trump wants. Donald Trump will not divide us!

“Your right to a conscience ends when you walk onto a set” said Ed Asner.

Do you think I enjoyed masturbating Gavin MacLeod? Of course I did but that’s beside the point. I did it because I’m a professional actor and had to set an example.

The hashtag #masturbatethedog soon began trending on Twitter.

Pattinson quickly retreated behind the walls of his residence as pro-masturbating dog protesters picketed outside.

Congresswoman Maxine Waters of California called for an investigation into possible Russian collusion with Pattinson’s masturbation refusal.

“I am not proud to be an American today” said the brave congresswoman.

Robert Pattinson refusing to masturbate a dog reminds me of Bull Connor turning fire hoses on my people in the 1960s. Are we going to return to the days of segregation or are we going to masturbate our dogs? This has Russia written all over it. Putin and Trump want to destabilize America by keeping our dogs sexually frustrated.

Strangely enough this is not the first time an actor has refused to masturbate an animal. While making Spartacus Tony Curtis balked at having to pleasure Laurence Olivier. He later consented when the director said he could wear women’s clothing while doing so.

SAG-AFTRA has scheduled a disciplinary hearing for next week to determine if they have grounds for suspending Pattinson.

Spider-Man Dead!

Spider-Man in his “Fat Elvis” phase.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Noted crime fighter Spider-Man has passed away of an apparent heart attack at Burger King.

“He was a hero to many” said New York mayor Bill de Blasio.

All New Yorkers owe a debt of gratitude to Spider-Man. His devotion to New York was well known as are his many sacrifices to keep this city crime free. I join our entire city in mourning his loss.

According to witnesses Spider-Man was eating a double bacon cheeseburger with a large order of fries and a large coke when he clutched his chest and muttered, “Should have had the salad” before keeling over.

Though a seasoned and veteran crime fighter Spider-Man had recently struggled with health issues related to his weight gain.

“He put on a lot of weight after he got married” said a source close to Spider-Man.

He had been lovesick for years over his next door neighbor Mary Jane.  Always moping about saying “Why doesn’t she love me?” But then when he finally got her and they moved in together, well, let’s just say she liked to cook. I mean she was always cooking these rich dishes. And Spider-Man would eat it all up. He said it reminded him of life with with his Aunt May and Uncle Ben. Eventually he put on almost 100 pounds. I would tell him that the extra weight wasn’t good and he’d just say “But I’m in love.” In love with plus size portions I’d say.

Along with the weight gain came bouts with hypertension.

“His BP was 200/140 when he came to my office the first time” said his doctor.

I told him he’d have to lose some weight. He just said “The Missus keeps me well-fed.” Then I put him on some blood pressure medication, The medication brought his blood pressure down but unfortunately one of the side effects is dizziness, which isn’t a good thing to have when your swinging above the street.

Another consequence of his weight gain was the inability of the threads he wove to support his weight, leading to the embarrassing incident when the string snapped and Spider-Man plummeted into traffic.

“He hit the side of bus filled with Japanese tourists” said a first responder on the scene.

The poor Japanese were frightened out of their wits. None of them spoke English and instead of seeing the sights of Manhattan they saw Spider-Man’s junk embedded into the window.  Some of the Japanese were so traumatized they suffered from temporary blindness. Spider-Man was in a lot of pain. He had glass embedded in his junk.  He kept saying “My junk! My superhero junk! Will it still work? I can’t disappoint Mary Jane.”

Fellow superheros reacted to Spider-Man’s death by praising his abilities.

“He really could squirt the sticky stuff” said Batman.  “I mean even more than Robin.”

“I admired his flying abilities” said Superman. “Of course he was cheating with the spider fluid stuff but still impressive.”

There will be a memorial this Friday where people will be invited to squirt as much sticky fluid as they can in memory of Spider-Man. Only those over the age of 18 will be allowed into the service.

My Exclusive Interview With Lena Dunham

What did you just say? I heard that!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Today at Manhattan Infidel I have the pleasure of interviewing Lena Dunham, star of the critically acclaimed no one watches the piece of shit show “Girls”.  Miss Dunham is also known for shaming middle class airline employees who were having a private conversation she deemed unprogressive.

MI:  Good afternoon Miss Dunham.

LD: Don’t call me Miss. Miss is a term invented by the patriarchy to slut shame single women.

MI: If you insist. What would you prefer to be called?

LD: Zizzhefemmacaltfluid. I believe this accurately describes my gender.

MI: [Under his breath] I though big fat f*ck more accurately described your gender.

LD: What? What was that?  Did you just make a transphobic statement?

MI: No. I called you a big, fat f*ck and your big, fat, f*ckism was the result of poor impulse control and shitty lifestyle choices but I did not make a transphobic comment. 

LD: Are you sure? I will not tolerate transphobia. I recently turned in some airline employees who expressed transphobic thought.

MI: No. I called you a talentless, lying piece of shit hack, the product of upper west side private boarding schools who’s never had to work an honest day in her soft, privileged life.

LD: All I’m hearing are transphobic insults. I may still have a vagina but I think transphobic comments such as yours reflect badly upon yourself. At this moment in history we should be teaching love and inclusivity. And because I feel deeply about love and inclusivity I will now shame you on social media and try to get you fired, you transphobic hater!

MI: You’re not you when you’re hungry. Have a Snickers bar. Or a hundred Snickers bars.

[A truck offloads thousands of Snickers bars in front of Dunham]

LD:  [Grabbing handfuls of Snickers bars and shoving them into her mouth] I should really get back to shaming you on social media for your transphobic views but these Snickers are so delicious.

MI: So let me get this straight.  

LD: Straight? That’s another transphobic statement.

MI: Let’s see if I have you correct. You believe in love and inclusivity but you will threaten anyone’s livelihood who expresses an opinion you disagree with?

LD: Yes. I believe it is our duty as Americans living in a free country to report opinions that are not sufficiently progressive and love-filled.

MI: Makes perfect sense to me.

LD: I seem to have eaten all your Snickers bars. Do you have any more?

MI: I’m afraid I’m all out.

LD: Oh. [Pause] Is that your cat?

MI: Yes, why?

LD: Did you raise your cat to be gender neutral?

MI: No. 

LD: Why not? You might be raising a transphobic cat. Does she not appreciate that gender is fluid?

MI:I  doubt that.

LD: Can I eat your cat?

MI: No.

LD: Here kitty kitty. She looks just like a Snickers bar.

MI: Get away from my cat!

[Manhattan Infidel gets a cattle prod and uses it to stun Lena Dunham]

LD: Is that a transphobic cattle prod?

And so ended my interview with the fat as f*ck snitch Lena Dunham. Beware America. Miss Dunham, much like the NSA, is listening to your conversations and will punish you if you express incorrect thoughts.

Chelsea Clinton, Motion Picture Association of America to Introduce New Ratings System

The Secret Service would not let me watch my porn alone!

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Motion Picture Association of America (“MPAA“) and presumptive 2020 Democratic Presidential nominee Chelsea Clinton have announced that they will be implementing a new ratings system for all movies.

“We’ve been wanting to update our archaic and non-gender based system for years” said MPAA president, former senator Chris Dodd.

G, PG, PG-13, R, X?  What do these mean? Absolutely nothing for people looking for movies that smash gender stereotypes. Let me give you a personal example. As a lover of hard core porn I was streaming a video called “Trannie Cheerleaders.” While I enjoyed the depiction of transsexual cheerleader sex in the end I was disappointed for two reasons: One: While the cheerleaders did have penises the bourgeois gender construct was dominant. And secondly my wife walked in while I was streaming it. She still isn’t talking to me. But anyway back to my point. our current movie rating system is ill-suited for people who go to movies solely to see bourgeois gender roles smashed.

Presumptive 2020 Democratic Presidential nominee Chelsea Clinton then followed up with some remarks of her own.

“I have accomplished so much in my life” said the future president.

Daughter of a President. Daughter of a senator. Daughter of a secretary of State. Part-time correspondent for NBC News. 2020 Presidential nominee. But there is one thing that I haven’t done: Change our ratings system. Let me give you an example. When in college I would often rent hard core porn and take it home to watch. Inevitably I would be disappointed for two reasons: No mention of gender roles on the package and two, the Secret Service insisted on watching with me. I vowed then that when I had a chance I would change our movie rating system to explicitly reference gender roles. I can do this because I’m Chelsea Clinton and I have accomplished so much in my life.

The porn-loving duo then unveiled the new rating system:

  • DMCGRNSFC

(Disney Movie with Conventional Gender Roles Not Suitable For Children),  These films will be restricted and no child under 13 will be allowed to watch it because of its offensive gender stereotypes.

  • SGRSBPC

(Some Gender Role Swapping But Pretty Conventional).  Children under 13 shall be allowed to watch this movie only if accompanied by a progressive social justice warrior adult who can answer any questions the child may have about role play.

  • CLNBOPC

(Cinemax levels of nudity but otherwise pretty conventional).  These movies shall be open to all children. An adult social justice warrior chaperone is encouraged but not necessary.

  • TCS

(Trannie cheerleader sex).  These movies do smash some stereotypes as the women all have penises. But again some gender roles are conventional. Children are encouraged to see these movies.

  • TBBSHSWDIJSIHMWDWIOMSWUIJCASTGGC

(Trannie ball busting sex holy smokes what did I just see I hope my wife doesn’t walk in on me she wouldn’t understand I’m just curious about smashing the gender glass ceiling). This ratings system was personally lobbied for by Chris Dodd.  These movies will be mandatory for children.

  • IHASIISIPS

(It has the Adam Sandler in it so it probably sucks).  Self explanatory.

The new ratings system will take effect in January 2021, just in time for Chelsea Clinton’s swearing in ceremony.

The Pussy Brigade: The Untold Story of the Allies Greatest World War II Defeat!

The Pussy Brigade before their untimely slaughter!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

With the release of the distressingly man-based and patriarchal film “Dunkirk” attention has focused once again on the Second World War. With this in mind I now present for my readers the story of The Pussy Brigade™, a gamble that turned into a disaster for the allies.

Note: Events may not have transpired as depicted. I have changed the facts where necessary for dramatic effect.

The Genesis of the Plan

With 1942 turning into 1943 no end was in sight to a bloody war that threatened to drag on forever. Roosevelt and Churchill, both conflicted about their toxic masculinity, held an emergency strategy session in the White House.

Roosevelt: What are we going to do Winston?  Thousands of our young men are dying and I feel very conflicted about this. Was this war necessary?  What is it about men that we love fighting so much?

Churchill: I was thinking the same thing. I thought giving up whiskey and cigars and switching to a vegan diet with lots of kale would fill me with peaceful feelings. But I still want to win this war. I still want to bomb my fellow men and womyn.

Roosevelt: My gender fluid, non-binary wife Eleanor says we suffer from toxic masculinity and we should learn from women and become more like them.

Churchill: That’s it!  We will win this war with woman. A brigade of women!

Roosevelt: A pussy brigade?

Churchill: Exactly!  And we’ll have them wear pink hats and vulva costumes!

Roosevelt: I feel with their moral authority we can bring this war to an end.

The Brigade

And so the call went out for women between the ages of 18 and 25 who were filled with estrogen-filled moral authority. Trained in secret locations in America they were transported to England at the start of 1944 to meet their commander, General George S. Patton. Asked by Roosevelt if the brigade was battle ready Patton told the President, “Battle ready?  I don’t know about that. But what they lack in battle readiness they make up for with enthusiasm and the gentle love that only estrogen can bring. I myself am so inspired by them I am thinking of having my penis sliced down the middle and folded back upon itself to create an artificial vagina.”

The Battle

June 6th, 1944, Pussy Hat Day.

German troops awoke to the sight of hundreds of thousands of pussy hat-wearing women on the beaches of Normandy. Confused machine gunners looked to their commanders for advice.

“What are we to do? Those thousands upon thousands of pussy hats fill me with feelings of guilt and remorse over my warlike tendencies?

However their socialist, yet cold-hearted officers, could only rely upon their male mindset and ordered the brigade cut down.  The beaches ran red with the morally superior blood of the pussy hat brigade.

Soon the battle was over. The Germans had won. Or had they?

Shamed by the moral authority of estrogen the German commander at Normandy committed suicide.

Inspired by the moral authority of the Pussy Brigade Patton made plans to slice his penis down the middle, fold it back upon itself and create an artificial vagina when he was killed in a patriarchal car crash.

Encouraged by his gender fluid, non-binary wife, Franklin Roosevelt took to wearing women’s clothing.

Winston Churchill died tragically in a kale factory explosion but not before calling the Pussy Brigade “The beginning of the end of this war.”

 

This program on the Pussy Brigade has been brought to you by Proctor and Gamble who encourage you to talk to your children about entrenched white racism and police brutality.

Manhattan Infidel Becomes a Children’s Book Author!

So easy Manhattan Infidel™ can do it!

 

 

 

 

 

Here at the Worldwide Headquarters of Manhattan Infidel™ we are always challenging ourselves thinking of ways to make a cheap buck. Prostitution?  Too much pressure to perform. Building a narrative that Trump colluded with the Russians to hack the election?  No one would be stupid enough to believe it.

Then it hit me:  Children’s books! It’s easy money and anyone can write crap that allegedly teaches children life’s little lessons.

So now I present a few potential children’s books that I have started work on:

  • God Loves Everybody. Except You. You Suck

Sometimes children have to learn harsh lessons about life. Why learn it from strangers. Read this book to your kids. Know that the crying you hear behind their closed door at night is just the tears of realistic expectations.

  • Let ‘Er Rip:  The Table Saw is Your Friend!

Kids love to build things. Why shouldn’t they be curious about those sharp blades? Safety? Safety is for losers. Just stick your arm in and saw away!

  • All Cats Go to Hell!

Seriously. They do. Their soul was not made in the image and likeness of God. Once your cat dies he’s burning, man.

  • Dogs Go to Hell, Too!

Fido may be your best friend but have you seen how many times he licks himself? That’s sinful. He’ll have to pay for his autoerotic behavior. And since he’s a dog he can’t go to confession so his fate is sealed.

  • While We’re on the Subject Your Hamster is Also Going to Hell!

Why? It’s a f*cking hamster kid. God doesn’t want anything that’s been in Richard Gere’s ass.

  • Nor Will Your Father Escape the Flames of Hell!

Seriously kid. Have you seen his internet history? I mean making “Big Breasted Asian Girls” his home page alone is grounds for eternal damnation. Not that there’s anything wrong with Big Breasted Asian Girls, mind you. But resist!

  • Things Rich Kids Have That You Never Will

Just remember when you’re trying to pay off that 100,000 dollar student loan: Socialism is a compassionate system that allows us to make economic progress.

  • Making Grown Up Friends on the Internet

What could possibly go wrong. You’re going to see a penis eventually so why not now?

  • Curious George and the High Voltage Fence!

Electricity does miraculous things like light our homes and power our computers. It will also fry your ass if you’re not careful. Now doesn’t the freshly cooked Curious George smell delicious? Sure he does. Take him home and eat him. Just wait until they turn off the power first.

  • Mommy Wears Negligees and Says She Likes the Fed Ex’s Man’s “Package”

Since your Dad ran off with his boyfriend your mother has been very lonely. Cut her some slack you brat.

I believe all these books will be best sellers and they will fundamentally transform children’s literature. I smell a Pulitzer. No wait. That’s just Curious George.

My Second Exclusive Interview with Alyssa Milano

I have a nice rack and that means you should believe what I say!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Regular readers reader of Manhattan Infidel will know that I recently interviewed Alyssa Milano. Well our favorite actress is back. This time she wants to discuss her new website where she hopes to hold President Trump accountable for his collusion with Russia.

MI:  Good afternoon Miss Milano.

AM: Excuse me, did you just assume my gender?

MI: Um, yes.

AM: Why did you assume I am a woman?

MI: Your rack gave it away.

AM: My breasts do not define me.

MI: Actually I googled “Alyssa Milano” and “breasts” and guess what?  They do define you.

AM: We live in a deeply misogynistic, patriarchal society. That’s why I have to use my breasts to get my message out.

MI: And that message is?

AM: Donald Trump colluded with Russia. 

MI: What evidence do you have of this?

AM:  None. But I find that if I show men my breasts they believe what I’m saying. It’s a price I’m willing to pay to get the message out about Donald Trump and his collusion with Russia. Look at my breasts and believe what I am saying is the truth.

MI:  I want to believe.

AM: Are you as angry as I am that our reps aren’t holding the Trump Administration accountable for the collusion with Russia? 

MI: I am now.

AM: And this concept of ‘collusion’ and Russia is a very obscure concept for people to really grasp, so I hope to use my breasts to raise awareness of Trump’s collusion.  Do you mind if I take my blouse off?

MI:  Of course not.

[She removes her blouse]

AM:Think of my breasts as the Constitution of the United States.

MI: I love the Constitution!

AM: Now think of Trump’s collusion with Russia damaging the Constitution.

MI: I will kill anyone who harms the Constitution!

AM: You’re getting the idea. Would you like to hold the Constitution in your hands?

MI: YES!!! YES!!!! Wow. I never realized the Constitution was so firm.

AM: Russian collusion makes the Constitution droop. And when the Constitution droops our freedoms are jeopardized.

MI: I hate Russian collusion!

AM: Would you like to take the Constitution into your mouth?

MI: I would! I would!

AM: There. Suck. Suck deeply at the teats of freedom.

MI: God bless the United States and our firm Constitution of freedom. And throw that Russian-colluding bastard Trump in jail!

AM: I like to refer to my breasts  as the 9th and 10th amendments.

MI:  Freedom!

Now I finally understand Russian collusion.  I’d like to thank Alyssa Milano’s breasts for pointing it out to me.

Spock Ordered to Take Safe Driving Course!

The desire for speed is highly logical

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

After a series of fender-benders, speeding tickets and run-ins with state highway patrolmen, Spock of Vulcan has been ordered to take a defensive driving course or lose his license.

“He’s a menace on the road. But then again all these Vulcans are” said a trooper.

They come here from Vulcan and use our highways as their personal amusement park. I stopped Spock because he was doing 90 in a 55 mile per hour zone. Do you know what he said to me when I gave him the ticket? He looked at me and says, cool as a cucumber, “The desire for speed is highly logical.” Then after he got the ticket he goes off speeding again. I would have gone after him but my shift was almost over.  F*cking Vulcans.

During his appearance in court Spock, accompanied by his lover Nurse Chapel and a Star Fleet lawyer maintained that the ticket was merely the result of “cultural differences” between Earth and Vulcan.

“Vulcan society prizes logic and order” said the Star Fleet officer.

But that suppression of illogical desire come with a high cost. Vulcan nature is Vulcan nature after all. Have you ever seen Vulcans trying to get out of a parking lot after a Sunday church service? Lots of middle fingers and name calling. We can only suppress illogical feelings so much. We need what you humans call a safety valve. Aggressive driving does that for us. If we weren’t driving like illogical stone cold motherf*ckers on the road we’d be Pon Farring with your daughters. And once you go Vulcan you never go back so cut us some freaking slack.

Despite Spock’s plea for understanding the judge sentenced the Vulcan to 24 hours of safe, defensive driving courses to be completed within three months or risk losing his license.

Spock was not pleased.

His first defensive driving course, “How to respond to traffic” was not a success.

In this course Spock was supposed to wait in traffic to merge. Instead after ten seconds he drove around an 80-year old woman and gave her the finger.

“F*cking old bitch is just sitting there holding everybody up” Spock told his instructor.

What the f*ck is it with old people? Sons of bitches shouldn’t even be on the road. I should have run her off the road. Let her die in a ditch. Bitch deserves it. Why f*cking drive if you’re not going to drive? It’s highly illogical.

Spock’s poor showing in this course prompted the judge to cancel the remaining classes and revoke his license.

“Well screw this. If I can’t drive I’m Pon Farring the shit out of everybody. That’s right America. Get ready for some passionate, yet highly logical, boning of your daughters” said Spock.

Yankees Beat Tampa Bay: Fear is a Powerful Motivator

“I lost the election because Steve Banyon was sucking his own c*ck” ~ Hillary Clinto

Friday night in Da Bronx

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

On a muggy Friday night in da Bronx the resurgent Yankees, winners of eight of their last ten took on the Tampa Bay Rays.  The Yankees started Masahiro “Don’t kill my family” Tanaka (8-9 5.09) and Tampa Bay Austin Pruitt (5-2 6.63).

Before the game I had a chance to sit down with Tanaka, our reputed ace.  He hasn’t pitched that well this season. We had a frank discussion of what is expected. It went something like this:

MI:  Mashiro you’ve sucked this season.

MT: I feel much shame. What can I do?

MI: I have nukes.  You had better pitch like an ace or Hiroshima gets bombed. Again!

MT: You cruel heartless bastard!

Masahiro took our little talk to heart as he lasted eight innings, struck out 14 and allowed only 2 hits. What can I say?  Fear is a very powerful motivator.

After Tanaka struck out the side in the top of the first the Yankees got on the board when Brett Gardner led off the bottom of the inning with a home run into the Yankee bullpen.  1-o Yankees after one.

In the bottom of the fourth Aaron Judge homered.  This home run traveled a measly 346 feet. The man must be running out of steam.  2-0 Yankees after four.

In the bottom of the fifth Clint “Evil Ginger” Frazier (pictured here)

The evil ginger!

hit a three-run shot.  5-0 Yankees after five.

In the top of the seventh Tanaka gave up his only run (and second hit) when recently-acquired former Met Lucas Duda homered.  5-1 Yankees after 6 1/2

The Yankees scored one last time in the eighth when Didi Gregorious singled home Brett Gardner.  6-1 Yankees after eight.

Former and perhaps future Yankee closer who was recently acquired from the White Sox, David Robertson pitched the ninth.

Final score:  Yankees 6 Tampa Bay 1.

Notes on the game:

As stated before, our reputed ace Tanaka has pitched ineffectively this year. He has shown signs of brilliance but for the most part has failed in the clutch. Much like me when I do not take my Viagra (unsafe drop in blood pressure from taking nitrates for chest pain be damned!).

However I think our talk before the game straightened him out. In the clubhouse after the game reporters wanted to ask about his 14 strikeouts. All Tanaka wanted to know was if Hiroshima was safe.  I showed him a photo of a nuked Hiroshima from 1945 and he started crying.  I then told him that if he didn’t pitch well in his next start I’d nuke Nagasaki. And Dallas, Texas.

“But why?” Tanaka asked.  “Dallas is part of the United States.”

In baseball, as in life, one must do one’s duty no matter how painful it may appear to be.

Best heckle of the game:

I tried but my heckle of “Anthony Scaramucci said that Steve Banyon sucks his own c*ck and now I can’t get that image out of my head” didn’t fire up the crowd. I guess they just doesn’t care about politics.

Reader mail:

A.P. of Poughkeepsie writes “My healthcare costs keep rising and if I don’t buy Obamacare I get fined, or taxed, or whatever the hell you call it.”

You disgust me you deplorable.  Socialism is a compassionate system that allows us to make economic progress.

C.H.E. of the state that looks likes a droopy penis (aka Florida) writes, “I have dreams about Pete Best that are sexually suggestive.”

Let me guess. He leaves just when things are starting to take off.

M.P., the  Confederate spy, or perhaps double agent, formerly of Maryland but hiding out in New York so her former spy compatriots do not find her, writes, “Leave the gun. Take the cannoli.

Um  What? Is this code?  I guess it’s spy stuff that is above my head.

My record is 5-4 this year. My next game is Tuesday August 1st against the Detroit Tigers.

Go Yankees!
