Michael Flynn Offers To Testify in Exchange For Immunity During Family Game Of Clue

Midway through a game of Clue with his family this past Easter Sunday, Michael Flynn reportedly offered to testify in exchange for immunity, assuring his family that he hadn’t killed Mr. Body and just because he was asking for immunity didn’t mean he was guilty of anything.

“My lawyer, Robert Kelner, who has become as much a part of the family as Matt or Michael Jr. these past few weeks, recommended that this was the best course of action for somebody in my position,” said Flynn, reiterating that it really wasn't him and everybody needed to stop thinking it was.

Flynn went on to remind his family that if it turned out his character, Colonel Mustard, was guilty, they should keep in mind that Flynn and Mustard were completely different people and that Mustard was only a character, although the most suspicious character in the game.

This offer to testify came on the heels of an accusation from his wife that Flynn was not showing his cards when he was supposed to. He explained that he hadn't heard her ask and just because he was asking for immunity didn't mean he was doing anything wrong, saying "Accidents happen, I might have misremembered the rules a little, but we don't need to make a big deal out of it.”

The family did not take Mr. Flynn up on his offer to testify however, arguing that it would ruin the integrity of the game and that playing the game was just a fun thing to do on a Sunday when people are obligated to spend time with their families, no matter how much they don't want to.

They went on to reassure him that they knew he wasn’t guilty of anything more than being a threat to national security, and that soon this board game controversy would be over and he could focus his energy back on hoping President Trump could distract the media long enough so that he could find a way to not be held responsible for his actions.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
