    Needs an explainbugmartini.com for all of us non USAnians. (Thanks, I did read about those persons already this time.)

      For everyone else:
      Taft – fattest president (once got stuck in his own bathtub)
      Lincoln – widely considered our greatest president (ended slavery), so lots of Bugs would want to cosplay him, but there can be only one….
      Nixon – resigned from presidency because of scandal, protested “I am not a crook!”
      Oh yeah, and Hoover…. who cares.

        Madison was our shortest president, but everyone keeps overlooking him.

        Just a little more context:
        Taft did not actually get stuck in a tub. Taft was also our only president to become a member of our supreme court, a role in which he left a greater legacy.

        Why do the Lincoln’s have swords rather than axes?

        Nixon’s I have a crook line was actually about an earlier scandal, in which he was innocent of wrong-doing.

          Possibly because Lincoln actually fought a duel with broadswords?

          It’s a bit late of a response, I know.

    If you’ve only got a couple minutes, just dress up as William Henry Harrison, show up, say a quick hi-and-bye to everybody, and leave.

      Ha!
      And for non-USAnians: Harrison died of pneumonia exactly one month after taking office.

    Shame you did not have Nixon as Gerald Ford’s ride.

    And to scare people, dress up as President #45… and right now, almost any of the candidates will do… (just in case for non-USAians – President Obama is the 44th president of the USA)…
    Just say it out loud – President Hillary Clinton or President Trump or President Sanders or any… go ahead scare yourself.

      Sanders was just fine, Clinton was okay. The-Orange-Idiot-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named is the Devil himself.

    Really, Adam; you ought to rehearse a bit with the cast, or at least warn them of the day’s topic. It’s just not fair to spring things like this on the poor bugs.
