25. My expectations were not met.

My expectations were not met because my expectations were ridiculous.

I was expecting some great humor to lighten the dismal news about this "administration" that never stops. The evil that these people have foisted on this country aided by the media in its quest for ratings ($s) is no laughing matter. This was a lampooning of epic proportions. It is remarkable that there were any laughs, when I consider what the subjects of this roast have done.

Bravo Ms. Wolf!
