Man In 2025 Bids Tearful Farewell To Mr. Potato Head, Dr. Seuss Books, Cara Dune Action Figure As Thought Police Close In

LOS ANGELES, CA—According to sources close to local man Vance Paulson, a resident of Los Angeles in the year 2025, he bid a tearful farewell to his Mr. Potato Head, his Dr. Seuss books, and his banned Gina Carano figures as the thought police closed in to take him down.

Paulson had held the illegal materials for years, hoping to sell them on the black market. But a friend reported him to the police, being concerned that he would be a bad influence on those around him, since he was in possession of the gendered potato, banned children's books, and canceled Star Wars character.

"Goodbye Mr. Potato Head. Goodbye Dr. Seuss. And I'll miss you most of all, Cara Dune!" Paulson said as the thought police began pounding on his door, having been tipped off to the illegal contraband he had on his person. Tears formed in his eyes as he said goodbye to each of his favorite pieces of banned pop culture, remembering the good times he had experienced with the male-gendered potato and the strong, independent Star Wars character. Paulson flipped through the Dr. Seuss book, enjoying the illegal rhymes one more time, knowing he would never see them again.

"I'll never forget you," he whispered as he accepted his fate.

As the thought police finally breached his door, he said his final goodbye to his Aunt Jemima syrup bottle and his illicit Land O' Lakes stick of butter. "I go on to a better place -- farewell, all of you!" he cried as the cops busted in and tackled him to the ground.

UFO Files Reveal Aliens Here And Already Defrauded Minnesota For $20 Billion

"They're here among us," alien specialist Donny Marcus told the press. "I've been studying these beings for years — they're smart, and they're resourceful. It took no time at all for them to defraud Tim Walz's government of billions through Medicare and Medicaid fraud. The government didn't even ask why they needed the money; they just forked it over. The invasion people have been anticipating has been happening right under our noses all along."

Democrat Effort To Retake Congress Once Again Thwarted By Existence Of Laws

"The Democratic Party would be winning in a landslide if it weren't for that confounded Constitution," said House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries. "We have so many great ideas on how to win, but people keep saying things like 'Hey, that's illegal' or 'That's literally a crime.' It's becoming disheartening."
