On September 9th, 2015, Republican politician John Boehner (whose name is regrettably not pronounced Boner) announced his resignation from US Congress.
Meme noticed, even though the reasons did not involve pigfucking. (The post title was Bae of Pigs, so the comparison was inevitable.)
Wow for a second I thought you meant of the closet.
A second thread was posted at the same time.
John Bohner Quits Congress
http://www.nytimes.com/2015/09/26/us/boehner-will-resign-from-congress.html
Boehner will resign in October. He's the Speaker of the House of Representatives in the US. His replacement will be some other Republican, but this should be an interesting fight.
What will we do without crying and tanning?
And then nonnies just kept doing it. Page 6 was almost entirely on-theme.
Now he resigned from pig.
John Bohner resigns!
In case someone missed it.
I'm sure this piece of news would resonate more deeply in me if I had any idea who he is and why this is important…
To resign from congress would be an awfully big adventure
And John Boehner is nothing if not an adventurous man.
Quit things!
In honor of whatever the hell is going on with meme right now, choose a thing to quit! Today is you day, nonnie, to give up on caffeine! Or smoking! Or watching that show you hate!
Cast down whatever it is, and be free!
Congress had a Boner as their Speaker!
Discover the sordid underbelly of American politics! Boners left in charge! The Boner is wilted and resigned after being expected to participate in American-style Congress! The Boner has retreated!
Details on Page 6!
There's a million things he hasn't done ...
… and now he never will, because he's resigned from Congress. But John Boehner will never be erased from the narrative!
The page turned, but meme kept going.
Do you think John Bonner was drunk when he quit congress?
Who?
Speaker for the House (leader if the House of Representatives in US congress) who announced today that he's resigning.
Is there a post about the announcement?
I can dig it up for you when I come back from the meme break I'm about to announce.
Later, boners!
First I was sad because I had nothing to contribute to meme's current theme. Then I remembered that the new Full House series is a thing that is happening and that I am looking forward to it.
This emphasis on boners has given me the idea for a new adventure in crime!
Meme will rue the day it mentioned the word boner!
John Böhner, der Wixer, hat den Kongress verlassen
Sogar der Tagesschau-Feed bringt's, muss also ein wichtiges Schwein gewesen sein.
SIMIA ES, CAESAR DIXIT
NONNIES, CRITTERS, GENTLEFAILERS, LEND ME YOUR EARS!
ET TU, SOLARICULUM?
CARTHAGO DELENDA EST!
…there's always one.
You should be. John Boehner is terrifying with his orange skin and acid tears.
Meme turned into either teenage boys or hms_anon.
Haha BONER.
Teenage boys then.
Current politics is too terrible to contemplate without pigfuck joke and boner puns.
Favorite Bones
What is your favorite bone, nonnies? Can be your bone, can be a bone generally found in humans, can be a bone generally not found in humans, can be a bone you think ought to be found in humans. Tell us what you love about this bone!
We've got plenty, thanks.
There was a brief foray into alternate mod naming conventions
boneUrSunny
SA That should have been BonUrSunny …. BonurSunny … no, hell, that doesn't look right either….

Farewell, post!
I know many nonnies are getting sick of the silliness but I will be a little sad to leave this post behind. I love the rare occasions when all meme just goes bonkers for a bit.
No promises.
I don't expect it to work, really, but you never know if you don't try.
“John Boehner resigned” has become a meme meme, often typed in response to several nonnies providing the same information in rapid succession.
The event itself is sometimes referred to as IOANNES ERECTIO, for the Latin thread.
