We know what questions President Obama is willing to answer.

Obama: I've called this meeting to discuss the achievements of the first 100 days in my second term… hey, how about that Jason Collins!

But as always, don’t hold your breath waiting for answers to questions that matter to those pesky Americans in flyover country. It’s a long list and we have less than an hour until President “I, um” takes the podium, but it’s a fair bet that these are some of the #QuestionsObamaWontAnswer.

And since listing topics Americans actually care about has proven a waste of time in the past, we might as well have a little fun while we’re waiting.

Keep ’em coming, Twitter. Obama pressers go down best with a healthy serving of mockery.
