Thank you, Sonny "Cloudy" Srinivista, for signing up for The Daily Me. Our search engine has combed the Internet for up to the minute news items that fit the profile you have so painstakingly filled out for us. Then, we weighted the probability that you would be interested in these articles against forms which showed what people with tastes similar to yours have liked reading in the past. And, then, we imagined ourselves in the middle of a crowded shopping mall – we're not saying it was Black Friday, but it definitely could have been the day after Greyish Thursday – screaming into our cellphones: "You know my phone service was cut off two weeks ago – why do you keep calling me‽"
Everybody celebrates the holidays in their own special way.
Enjoy,Brexit: Beating Back The Invading Hoards
Olivier Smith-Smythe-Smith has a garage full of crumpets. I wish this was the opening line of a beer hall song they used to sing during the war (you know the one – don't make me say it!), but it's actually a modern-day description of conditions in the Smith-Smythe-Smith household.
"Well," Smith-Smythe-Smith sniffed, "it's Brexit, innit?"
I asked him to elaborate.
"Well," Smith-Smythe-Smith sniffed louder, "it's the damn Brexit, innit?"
Okay, then, I shall elaborate myself: British households are starting to hoard food and drugs in anticipation that the nation's economy will fall off a cliff when it leaves the European Union in March.
"Fall off a cliff?" Smith-Smythe-Smith asked. "Tha's a bit...steep, innit?"
Oh, please! You lost your right to comment when your elaboration amounted to a single word! And, a naughty one, at that! Although, I am curious about one thing: if you keep crumpets in the garage, where do you keep your car?
"Well," Smith-Smythe-Smith sniffed, "ever since Derek run off to Cardiff to be with Daisy from up the junction, the corner bedroom's been spare, hannit?"
I was, of course, sorry I asked.

Rue, Britannia, Britannia'll Rue The Day
Boris Johnson, who single-handedly wants to bring back the mop top, wants to be the next British Prime Minister. How do we know? Because he is loudly denying that he wants to be the next British Prime Minister. Quod erat...something Latin.
On such slender reeds are great oaks...confused. Well. If Johnson wants to succeed Theresa May as Prime Minister, he's going to need a good campaign slogan. Might we suggest:
BORIS 2019: With hair that awful, you know his policies must be sound.
Vote for the Baldrick of British politics: he has a cunning plan!
Want a hard Brexit? You need the right Johnson!
Boris Johnson for PM: Because the man who started the economic destruction of Britain is the only one who can be trusted to finish the job!

Remember, Children: Math You Learn On The Streets Might Not Be Accurate
Toronto City Council has voted to double each councillor's office staff budget. As a result, almost all of the $25 million Ontario Premier Doug Ford claimed he would save by cutting the number of councillors in half will be spent anyway.
"You – your – you're looking at it the wrong way," Ford argued out of the back of a pickup truck racing down Highway 401. "If we hadn't cut the number of councillors in half, we would be spending twice as much on staffing City Council now!"
We knew that there was a problem with the Premier's logic, somewhere, but our head hurt too much to try and figure out what it was.

Yaskanski Mixes A Mean Vodka Vodka With A Vodka Chaser
American Secretary of State Mike Pompeo has announced that the Trump administration will begin the process of scrapping the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty within 60 days unless Russia returns to compliance with the treaty's terms.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov looked askance (not to be confused with Viktor Yaskanski, a mixologist in the Kremlin bar – not the association, the nightclub). "But...you want an excuse to get out of the treaty so you can deploy new weapons against China. Blaming Russia – tsk. Tsk on you, I say!"
