Dear organization applying for 501 (c) 4 status:
In order to keep your 501(c)4 status, we have a few straight-forward requests.For groups with “Tea Party” in name or something Constitution-related in mission:
• Please send us a notarized copy of form 27(b) and attached straw, spun into gold.
• Please return a signed copy of this form along with three millet seeds picked out of a heap of lentils, located over the glass sea east of the Sun and west of the Moon and guarded by a three-headed troll.
• On completion of form 478(b) we can send you instructions for defeating the troll, but only if the form is notarized during a full moon.
• To expedite completion of this form, you can sign form 37(b)4-Part D, giving us your first-born child in perpetuity, but be warned that the notarization process must take place in the middle of an electrical storm. Give yourself ample time.
• Sign, notarize, and-write the first 3,094 digits of pi on the back of this form.
• Alternatively, you can name your second child “George W. Bush’s Presidency Was A Mistake” and “Ronald Reagan? More Like Satan Satan” and bypass forms AA-MM, but you still must complete the remaining 17 forms to the best of your ability.
• Append, along with records of all bodily functions performed by volunteers for your organization during the past fiscal year, sixteen signed copies of form 17B-c4, one folded neatly into an origami swan.
And on, and on...
What is love?
• All of these forms must be delivered by pigeon to a gap that 8 inches wide that opens in an enchanted rock in the Toledo office between 3:32 and 3:30 p.m. on Feb. 29, if you are pure in heart and whisper the password. The password is on the 930th page of Proust’s “Remembrance of Things Past,” but it is only visible to people who have read all six volumes. Afterwards, take the pigeon home and teach it how to love.
• Go back in time and kill Hitler. Then, go back in time to repair the damage you have done by doing so. Take a picture of yourself standing behind him at Munich to prove it and append it with form 9222222-gggionqet.• Truly understand the musical contributions of Prince. Include six doves with form 93as93as93 who will testify for you.
• I’m thinking of a number. What is it? Whisper it to a reed. Clip the reed, bring it to my daughter, and successfully answer the three riddles she will pose you. Be careful of the elf!
• Also, photocopy your driver’s license eight times. Burn all copies. Photocopy it six more times and mail Joe Biden your favorite. Enclose his response letter with form F945.
