Courage To Exit Thomas Circle Sure to Arrive Next Go-Round

Fort Totten resident Ellis McEnroe assured himself that the courage to exit Thomas Circle, which he had been navigating for five revolutions, would be sure to arrive on the next go-round. “I just got jammed in from that car on Vermont,” explained McEnroe, “once that gap opens up I can shift into...wait, oh fuck.”

McEnroe did manage to exit the circle once, only to find himself on southbound 14th street instead of northwest bound Massachusetts. “They really need bigger signs,” muttered McEnroe as he rejoined the circle’s rushing tide. “Anyway, gotta change lanes and...god, no fuck a truck? Why is a truck…”

While troubling, the ordeal is not as severe as in 2019 when McEnroe found himself unable to shift into an exit lane on I-495 and spent two hours circumnavigating the city in hopes for a less fraught merge.

Fugazi Cover Band Reunites Since Before Lockdown to Perform– They Still Suck 

The COVID-Pandemic has brought stories of hope, resilience, and inspiration. This week DC based Fugazi cover band ‘Fuck It All’ got back together to rehearse for the first time since before lockdown. To their surprise they still suck. 

“We started the band when we were in high school. We barely rehearsed back then but we spent a lot of time listening to ‘Red Medicine’ and ‘The Argument’ so that still counts,” said 38 year old lead guitarist Max Krabyll while smoking his second joint of the day. “This week’s rehearsal was supposed to be epic but it was a total shitshow. I don’t know why.”

“Despite being married and having kids, we would always make some space for the band,” said Max while having his third beer of the day. “We had weekly Zoom meetings where we discussed if our set list should start with ‘Waiting Room’ or ‘I’m so Tired.’ Logically this last rehearsal should have been perfect, but we sucked so much. It doesn’t make any sense.”

Family members of the band didn't seem shocked the band’s rehearsal was not good. “Max gave me the band’s Facebook password on our first date, 10 years ago. He said it was the biggest sign of trust,” said Stephany Lange, Max’s wife. “I’ve learned so much about Fugazi but when I ask Max to play a song, he tells me he needs to change the strings of his guitar. He never rehearses so it makes sense the band sounds like trash.”

The Cherry Swamp got exclusive access to the band’s rehearsal. After 45 minutes of waiting for their drummer, the band spent two hours catching up on life while drinking and smoking weed, and discussing which song they should play first. After they unsuccessfully tried to play ‘Blueprint’, the band decided to take an indefinite hiatus.
