God Fumbles, Fails to Save Queen

God, depicted as in Michaelangelo's Creation of Adam, fails to save a soccer ball from crossing the line of a soccer goal. Queen Elizabeth is in a small red box in the upper right corner, captioned as saying "Oh no!"

LONDON, England—Both Liverpool and Manchester fans were disappointed yesterday when, after a grueling 70 years on the pitch, God failed to save the Queen.

“He’s just never failed us like this before!” cried one dismayed Englishman. “I’m pretty sure he was the one who told us to keep calm and carry on way back when things looked bleak in the first half.”

I’m not going to lie, 2020 has been rough. 12 months ago I felt so optimistic. After all, 2020 had all of the makings of my perfect year: a new decade, a thriving economy, and a theatrical release of Sonic the Hedgehog slated for February 14th.
