Reply To: Extra last line in The Presidents
The whole point of the humor of the last line in the presidents is that there IS no last line in the presidents. There should never be anything to follow “I don’t like to make political statements” since the humor is in the implied following of the advice that Thumper’s father once gave- “If you can’t say something nice, don’t say anything at all”. By not saying anything he is really saying that he had nothing nice he COULD say. It also leaves room open for future presidents to be added eventually.
