Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

“In the future, this lab will be a museum. don’t touch it.”

Let us savor the impending downfall of lawless scoundrels who richly deserve the trouble barreling their way.

Anyone who bans teaching American history has no right to shape America’s future.

Republican speaker of the house Mike Johnson is the bland and smiling face of evil.

Wake up. Grow up. Get in the fight.

Innocent people don’t delay justice.

We’ve had enough carrots to last a lifetime. break out the sticks.

Incompetence, fear, or corruption? why not all three?

I did not have this on my fuck 2022 bingo card.

It’s not hopeless, and we’re not helpless.

“Why isn’t this Snickers bar only a nickel?”

Come on, media. you have one job. start doing it.

A snarling mass of vitriolic jackals

It may be funny to you motherfucker, but it’s not funny to me.

The poor and middle-class pay taxes, the rich pay accountants, the wealthy pay politicians.

There are no moderate republicans – only extremists and cowards.

Hi god, it’s us. Thanks a heap, you’re having a great week and it’s only Thursday!

JFC, are there no editors left at that goddamn rag?

We are builders in a constant struggle with destroyers. let’s win this.

Despite his magical powers, I don’t think Trump is thinking this through, to be honest.

Do not shrug your shoulders and accept the normalization of untruths.

That’s my take and I am available for criticism at this time.

No one could have predicted…

if you can’t see it, then you are useless in the fight to stop it.

The War Against Cheetos

by John Cole|  October 3, 200710:20 am| 34 Comments

This post is in: General Stupidity

FacebookTweetEmail

From the comments today:

These guys are, really, just punk-ass bitches with an inferior complex and a month’s supply of Cheetos and orange-stained keyboards.

This has got to stop. I don’t know what Cheetos did to “teh left,” but Cheetos are being unfairly villainized on a daily basis. The worst offenders, by far, are the vile scum at Sadly, No, who can not go a week without smearing this rather American snack. Here they are two weeks ago:

Hey guys, it’s me. If you hang out in the comments at all, you’ve probably seen me chatting away down there. Well today, I swung by this place, and the back door was standing wide open, and….well, it’s obvious that our most beloved troll, Gary Ruppert, really was here. For one thing, it looks like a Cheetos factory exploded in the place, and for another, the smell….well, the less said about that, the better.

And the folks at the Poorman are no better. Here they are smearing Cheetos with the taint of NRO. You don’t have to go too far to find the hate for Cheetos.

Can’t we all just get along?

    I believe this evolved from the following joke:

    A guy goes to the doctor’s and tells the Doc, “Doc I have a problem, my dick is orange.” The doctor takes a look and sure enough the guys dick is orange. The dr. asks “what is your daily routine?” The guy replies “Well, I come home, grab a bag of cheetos and read a playboy.”

    It’s a class issue. We effete liberals snack on imported French cheese and wine while we blog, and sneer at the working class chumps with their pork rinds, ketchup flavoured chips and cheetos.
    Not that I have anything against the working class, but it bugs me to see people working against their own class interests because they’ve been suckered by right wing demagogues into a frenzy of nationalism and knee-jerk social backlashing.

    That’s why I switched to using Funyuns as a snack-food insult. There’s nothing more French than Funyuns. Except maybe French Onion Sunchips, but those fucking rock.

    Face it, John–your liberal indoctrination will only be complete once your keyboard is filled with the remnants of the new Tomato & Mozzarella Pringles.

    With a bag of Cheetos you possess the glory of your orange thumb tickling your tonsils as you suck long and hard and fully fear free of embarrassing excuses.

    I’m a Pringles man myself. At least I know they’re made out of potatoes, which the Irish consider health food.

    Can anybody honestly say they know what Cheetos are made from?
    That’s what I thought. Case closed.

    Although both leave orange stains that are the mark of basement pundits everywhere, Cheetos blow when compared to the vastly superior Hawkin’s Cheezies.

    Can anybody honestly say they know what Cheetos are made from?

    Um…I’ll guess – cardboard dissolved by caustic chemicals and then sprayed with maybe a wood preservative, followed by a trip to an Earl Scheib auto painting location to add and bake in the orange coloring.

    But I might be wrong.

    OH…I didn’t know we were talking about the special “Guano-Flavoured” Cheetos. That’s different, of course.

    I think we have those in our vending machine here at work.

    Thanks.

    I don’t know who came up with that idea at budweiser but I saw those and thought I would be sick. Budweiser tastes bad enough but add CLAMATO TO IT?

    not just any Budweiser, now, it’s Bud Light. you wouldn’t want the taste of beer to overpower the delicate flavor of canned clam squeezins, would you ?

    Ketchup-flavored chips! Yum! Those are awesome. (I’ll bet they would taste awesome with a 1996 Burgundy Pinot Noir… I’m just saying…)
