Sligo Town Meeting Ends Abruptly After Everyone Unexpectedly Agrees

In a rare occurrence that shocked the neighborhood, the Sligo Town Hall meeting ended instantly when everyone present unexpectedly agreed.


According to witnesses present, the town hall opened with the proposal that nothing will ever get accomplished through town hall due to neighborhood drama. Everyone instantly said, “hear, hear, hear,” prompting city officials to end the meeting, perceiving it as a waste of time.


The unexpected agreement between participants at the City Hall meeting raised eyebrows immediately, with several wondering whether or not someone spiked the coffee. Several members are beginning to ask if a follow-up meeting needs to be scheduled, just to be sure.


Some participants suspect the lack of disagreement may have been due to the absence of one Bob Pain-in-Neck, a resident known to disagree instinctively, often without knowing what he is disagreeing with. The chair of the meeting noted that Bob Pain-in-Neck typically begins each town hall by automatically opposing whatever proposal is presented first, citing “gut feeling” and “just because.” Bob’s absence has since caused several attendees to wonder if the solution to the town’s ongoing issues was to simply exile him.


The town hall meeting ended with everyone voting unanimously to not hold a town hall meeting ever again due to the impossibility of making progress. This unanimous decision creates complexity in the proposal to hold another town hall meeting to ensure that everyone actually agrees on this. On one hand, everyone wants to have another town hall meeting to make sure they actually agree. On the other, they’ve already voted to ban town hall meetings altogether, making it impossible to act on this proposal. A town hall meeting will be held next Friday to discuss how to go about this dilemma.
