MINNEAPOLIS (The Borowitz Report)âThe so-called polar vortex caused hundreds of injuries across the Midwest today, as people who said âso much for global warmingâ and similar comments were punched in the face.
Authorities in several states said that residents who had made ignorant comments erroneously citing the brutally cold temperatures as proof that climate change did not exist were reporting a sharp increase in injuries to the face and head regions.
In an emergency room in St. Paul, Harland Dorrinson, forty-one, was waiting to be treated for bruising to the facial area after he made a crack about how the below-freezing temperatures meant that climate-change activists were full of shit.
âIâd just finished saying it and boom, out of nowhere someone punched me in the face,â he said. âThis polar vortex is really dangerous.â
The meteorology professor Davis Logsdon, of the University of Minnesota, issued a safety warning to residents of the states hammered by the historic low temperatures: âIf you are living within the range of the polar vortex and you have something idiotic to say about climate change, do not leave your house.â
