Kickass, the doorstop dog, having something of an ancestral history with packs, understands the keeper’s desire to form a pack to counter the inane “Proud Boys” pack now emerging as the lead hyenas in the Jan. 6 democracy herd take-down attempt.
Recently freed from the burden of feeling sorry for himself as his Covid recedes, the keeper emerges from the ordeal brimming with creativity and shunning all restraint; so there is this: members are now being recruited to join POOF–“Peed Off Old Farts,” to engage in identifying the obvious objects of ridicule that emerge on a daily basis as Jan. 6 unfolds; and to then assist others in dealing with obvious interpretive infirmities such as brain cramps and reality incontinence.
POOF membership is open to all genders and age groups; and has as its tentative motto: “Seeing is not believing,” with bylaws yet to be written. (Suggestions are welcome.)
POOF meetings are scheduled for everywhere, with no set agenda, other than establishing brief periods of listening amid all the talking.
A temporary POOF membership ID card is included herein, and POOF hats may be available later displaying “Make America Grin Again!”

(Peed off old Fart)
This card certifies that the Undersigned is a member
