Twinkie Defense Pretty Much Explains Area Man’s Entire Life

Local - 2009

CICERO, INDIANA—After many years of fumbling to find an excuse for his ineffectual life, John Stottard has struck gold. “I’ve been eating junk food my entire life. That explains why I sleep 14 hours a night and can’t find a job. I’m not sure if it explains my continuous sweating, but you know what? I bet it does.” His mother and primary caretaker described him as both “inconsiderate” and “stupid.” Stottard quietly reflected on the couch where upon he spends his waking hours, “I’ve never even had a girlfriend. I farted on a girl once during a date. I wasn’t on the date with her, I was just walking by, but I got a boner just the same.” Journal entries reveal he once contemplated suicide, but instead ate a Ho Ho and took a nap.
