The Colorado Avalanche bringing the Stanley Cup home after downing the Tampa Bay Lightning in a 4-2 game series. Is it us, or does beating a hockey team from Florida make everything right in the world?

We think you know what goes here, probably the biggest thumbs down ever. (Hint: It's the repeal of something that rhymes with Doe d. Spade)

This Week's Sign of the Downfall

Time to B negative

Leslie Sinclair, a 66-year-old Scottish man with a super feminine name, has donated blood 125 times throughout the past five decades. But last week, he was turned away from his donation center for refusing to answer a question on the new intake form asking whether or not he was pregnant. The question has been added to Scottish intake forms given that pregnant females sometimes identify as men these days, but it angered Sinclair so much that he’s decided to stop giving blood entirely (he might’ve been man-struating). However, Sinclair shouldn’t be mad at the form for asking if he was pregnant, because he’d probably just gained some weight, and we’ve all made that mistake.
