Untitled Beatles Summer News Extravaganza

When did the news become so awful? A: 2015. That was more of a rhetorical question, but you’re 100% correct. It was 2015.

Channeling Sexy Sadie, he recites a MANTRA OF THE COSMOS, and hovers above a display of various Ringo reissues from the 00s.

(belch) YA KNOW... (fart) DOZ MURRAY BRUTHERSSS OWE ME BIG TIME. CUZ GHOSTBUTLERS WUZ MY IDEA...
