This joke is from Viv’s Jock and was originally British in nature; but I thought, given the current situation, my American readers might appreciate it more.

If you took all the politicians and bureaucrats and laid them end to end down Pennsylvania Avenue…
…it might be a damned good idea.

It reminds me of that old quote attributed variously to Bette Davis and Dorothy Parker:
If all the girls at that party were laid end to end, I wouldn’t be a bit surprised.
Sad that it is so funny. (Hubs is a federal employee…)

Thanks for the smile. The joke is cute! The situation, however, is deplorable; designed to be intimidating, methinks, but mostly just disgusting and embarrassing.

American politicians and bureaucrats? On just one street? We’d have to stack them several floors up.

I did wonder if Pennsylvania Avenue would be long enough – the English version is the M1, a motorway that runs from London to Leeds, with a speed limit of 70 mph and far too much traffic. What’s the busiest Interstate in the US?

I really struggled with that! Was going for Route 66 at first but it doesn’t go near Washington DC; I couldn’t find a famous road online, so I opted for the most famous road in DC.

The lining up on the street leaves one vital component out – the roller to flatten the lot of them!
