WASHINGTON—After a vagrant emerged from the darkness along the highway and beckoned toward the vehicles with his wickedly sharp blade, President Joe Biden directed his motorcade to pullover and pick up a blood-soaked hitchhiker, sources reported Thursday. “Wow, that poor guy with the meat cleaver sure looks like he could use a ride,” said Biden, who told Secret Service agents to stop the presidential limousine and scoot over to make room for the strange man who had blood dripping off his face and clothes and appeared to wear no shoes. “Had a rough night, haven’t you, fella? Well, we can take you as far as 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. If you need to go further than that, you’re on your own.” At press time, the hitchhiker, who was revealed to be the ghost of the late President John F. Kennedy, had reportedly killed Biden as revenge for living in his cursed former home.

POUGHKEEPSIE, NY—Staying up late to make sure he could pleasure himself without anyone noticing, local man Dylan Utley was reportedly waiting until his wife and kids were asleep Sunday to go and masturbate under the Christmas tree. “Hopefully I can be really quiet so as to not wake anyone up while I lie under the Christmas tree and go to town on myself,” said Utley, explaining that it would make the festive holiday much less special if his family discovered him beating his meat. “I’d hate to have Christmas morning ruined because the kids woke up and saw it’s not actually Santa downstairs, but just me violently pulling my tinsel-covered pud. I know how disillusioning that can be, as someone who saw his own father masturbating in a Santa costume.” At press time, Utley’s children had reportedly woken up, rushed downstairs, and happily shouted, “Santa came.”
