Thank you, Auggie Pusillanimous, for signing up for The Daily Me. Our search engine has combed the Internet for up to the minute news items that fit the profile you have so painstakingly filled out for us. Then, we weighted the probability that you would be interested in these articles against forms which showed what people with tastes similar to yours have liked reading in the past. And, then, George Romero, director of the Night of the Living Dead movies, died. If he returned (because you know he, of all people, has to) as he had lived most of his life, as the director of very effective horror movies, we would cheer. If, however, he returned as he was at the beginning of his career, working on the set of Mister Roger’s Neighbourhood, we would be afraid. We would be very afraid.
Enjoy,

If The Shirt Was Made In Hawaii, It Might Be A loss Canadians Could Live With
The United States has delivered its list of demands for renegotiating the North American Free Trade Agreement to Canada and Mexico. Stripped of their legal language, these are the demands:
1. Give us whatever we want.
2. We’ll pay you whatever we want whenever we feel like it.
“This is just a preliminary bargaining position,” Prime Minister Justin Trudeau brightly enthused. “I look forward to losing my shirt with our biggest trading partner!”

In The Rush To Embrace Islamophobia, Let Us Not Forget A Reliable Standby Like Misogyny
The 13th Doctor is a woman? The 13th Doctor is a woman! That’s outrageous! Only a man can fly a blue police box thingie! Do I have a problem with change? Damn straight I have a problem with change. I hate it! Hate it! Hate it! Hate it! Hate it! So, okay, sure, the Doctor has changed 12 times before, but he always stayed the same, if you see what I mean. This is male genocide, baby! Male freaking genocide! Did you know that 90 per cent of science fiction television series with women in lead roles have lead roles played by women? Well played, SJWs. Well played.
Well, okay, sure, I’ve never actually watched Dr. Who. What do you think I am – some kind of nerd or something? Screw you! But, just because I’m ignorant doesn’t mean I can’t have an opinion, and my opinion is that only men should play alien Time Masters!

Did You Keep The Receipt?
The collapse of the Republican effort to repeal the Affordable Care Act has left some people with buyer’s remorse.
“I paid a lot of cash for this political party,” complained David Koch (or, possibly, his brother Frankenstein – it’s not always easy to tell them apart). “It wasn’t charity – I expect value for my money! If the tax refund function of my product is as defective as the health care reform function, I will be demanding my money back!”

Of Course, If They Lived Somewhere Else, That Would Solve Half The Problem…
Residents of Saint-Apollinaire, Quebec (of course) have rejected a proposal for a Muslim-run cemetery.
When it was pointed out that a possible consequence of this referendum vote was that Muslims would have to find a way to live forever, obviating the need for finding a place to be buried after they die, resident Monique Fabergere said, “Oh. I hadn’t thought of that. I thought they would just have to, you know, die and be buried somewhere else. Is it…too late to recast my vote?”

Gives New Meaning To The Phrase Brown-noser!
The Food and Drug Administration has issued a warning that people with colds should avoid snorting chocolate.
“The substance will interact with the mucous in the nasal passage to produce gooey chocolate slime,” explained Doctor Chandrikar Modigliano, chief FDA goologist. “Yes, that is the technical term, gooey chocolate slime. Our concern is that a nose full of gooey chocolate slime is a potential breathing hazard. Anybody who fears they may have this condition should get themselves to a Purdey’s stat!”
