Earlier in the week there was a bit of a heat wave in Washington DC and it caused a WAX statue of Abe Lincoln to begin to melt. According to readers' context notes on X, it seems that was always the intent of the artist as WAX is obviously not going to stick around forever, but the jokes that made their way around the social media platform regarding the melting were pretty funny and since we are surrounded by NOT funny news lately we thought we would take a minute to laugh and invite you to laugh with us.

Even our monuments are exhausted by our politics.

PREACH! We are literally writing this article just to get a break and laugh because our politics are so wild right now!
The 1982 Maxell tape advert was a curious choice for a statue https://t.co/R4tNRe3CoX

Proof Positive, there is a Simpsons Meme for every occasion.
This community note is hilarious considering we are living in an era of monument iconoclasm. https://t.co/8LJQ3oezoA

"Uhm , actually, the wax statue was meant to melt and deteriorate, ok?"
Money well spent. https://t.co/DwY2JtGOng
*SNORT* Well, it is Washington DC, they have spent money on worse things. hahahaha

That picture is how we feel anytime some Leftist in Congress says they want to 'FIX' something.
Wax Lincoln really speaks to all of us right now. https://t.co/keI7jbqmzk

INDEED he does.
The jokes write themselves. They’re not tasteful but they’re funny.

VERY TRUE. We could not include some of them because they were a little too much for Twitchy and more suited to Mad Magazine, but they are out there and they are funny. We hope you needed this laugh as much as we did.
Now get back on the main page and read about how awful the Left is and how crazy the Democrat Presidential Campaign is going. They are kind of funny in their own way. *wink*
